well i havent personally done a swap like that with the 3800series2 sc but i have seen it done if yours has a 3.8 already it is pretty straight forward . if its a 3.1 i believe you will have to get the harness ecm/pcm out of the century. then it should have all the correct mounting locations on your car. i would upgrade your fuel pump. any other questions just post back

Hi, I like your car.  I have a 1996 Lumina LS and had thought about upgrading to an '02 Buick 3800 V6  series w/ a supercharger..(out of a smashed Century)...but I don't know if it will fit, etc. My car is also one I got for $600.00 (to replace riding a city bus-lol). Any tips on an engine swap?
