SC 3800/manual tranny '88 Olds Toronado. This one has been around for years but its still one of my favorites.

I would like to compile a list of GM cars that would not be improved with a 3800SC swap. I bet you can count them on one hand. F-body, Corvette... and... ?
I am baffled why he used a 282 when the F35 and F40 are such better options, but OTOH, a 3800SCII+282 is a stupid-cheap swap. Which brings us right back around to putting them in everything.
What I'd like to see is someone doing a SCIII + F40 into a Reatta. That would be nifty.
YES.
Those cars have falling into the dub crowd around here, but I'd still rock one. I love those giant fishes.
20 extra hp (<10% bump) and the ability to row your own gears--worth the hassle of a swap into a Riviera?
Whoomah!
Well, 20hp is just the beginning. ZZP will happily provide the parts to build that III to a much better specification. Hell, maybe swap it over to a turbo and then put it in the Riv.
Looks like he's moved most of his updates to Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ecoboostcobra

Andy Hollis (champion autocrosser and Top 10 finisher in the One Lap in a engine-swapped CRX) is building up a new car for One Lap. As you can tell by the address, it's a Miata. Specifically, an NB that he is going to drop a built K24 Honda engine into. Neat.
Whoomah!
