I have a 97 Grand Am that had a piston come out the side of the block and I have a 94 Buick Lasaber that is rusting to the ground. Is it possable to change out the entire power train to put the two of them together?? ---

I’m sure you could, but to do it would probably cost more than just getting a new car. ---

There was a 3.1L V6 offered on the Pontiac. Maybe the 3.8L will fit. You will probably have to move the computers, too. One or both are probably pre-OBD-II.
