There is a lot of misinformation in this thread. If you are considering the swap, check out my posts over on Renntech. The reason it is more difficult to put the 3.6/3.8 in the earlier cars has nothing to do with egas. Also in my opinion the gearing of the 5 speed is quite well matched for the torque of the larger engines.
