Hey. I am the owner of a 1993 Buick Century Special Sedan. I have been saving my money to buy a Mitsubishi Starion, but after seeing the new LaCrosse Super, I have been thinking about a possible LS1 swap to replace the hamster wheel in my current car. Do any of you know of any solutons to this? My current mill is a 3.3 liter V6 that at one time may have made 165 hp and 185 lb-ft. It has a 3-speed (I think) collumn shift automatic. My questions are-
Would I have to get beffier front springs to handle any extra weight there may be?
Would I have to cut a hole in the floor for a stick shift?
Would the unibody even tolerate the torque? What if I move on to forced induction?
Would I have to convert to rear wheel drive? How?
If this couldn't work, what about a 3800 Supercharged Regal engine?
Thanks.
