Hybrid Websites?

[camino70]

I have a 3.8 drivetrain that I want to transplant into an A-Body and was wondering if there were any other websites out there besides S10xGN's(Great Site!)

I know I may catch some flack for this, but some direction would be greatly appreciated.

Traction

That's good.
If you have traction problems you can throw some boulders in the back.

Thanks for the replies, I have been surfing around. I found a few harness kits from Caspers and I was wondering if anyone else here has used them and if they were worth it?

TIA,
Ron

They DID make an elky for a few years that used a 3.8L. I'd try to dig one of those up in a JY for parts, at the very least the engine mounting parts, possibly the transmission crossmemebers. An El Camino has been done before, I don't ahe a site for it but it's out there. The guy did a front clip from a GN too, had the tail gate where it said BUICK. Really really neat car. Then again, It may have even been a GM prototype.

There was a mid 80's El Camino in Nashua New Hampshire, that had an 87 GN engine in it, with 87 nose, and interior. Also there was a El Camino with a GN engine in it for sale on GNTTYPE not to long ago. You could maybe e mail the guy for ideas from someone who already made the swap.
