Is there a rwd manual transmission that fits a 94 buick park avenue supercharged?

I own a 76 cosworth vega and plan on swapping the 122ci 4 cylinder for a 3.8 buick supercharged. The car already has an upgraded suspension and 3″ dual exaust from when i had a 350 in it. Im planing on swapping the engines this summer when I paint the car but am unsure of what transmission if any will fit the 3800 series 2 engine and can handle the 320 hp it puts out. I believe the manual 5 speed camaro transmission off an 96 v6 also with the 3800 series 2 will fit, and my car has the 3.73 gears that the transmission is set up for. Can anyone tell me if the 96 3.8L camaro transmission will bolt up to the engine or anything else that will.

Dingy is right. The bell housing mount bolts are quite possibly different. Although chevrolet did use a 3.8 I don’t think it si the same block the “BOP” people used. which would mean you need an adapter which any high performance shop should have or be able to get for you at a nominal fee. but you will have to figure motor mounts out because they weren’t mounted like standard rear wheel drivers were. Good luck otherwise that will be a sweet ride.

Gommendy is 7th in Portland € ™ s Grand Prix Mazda

Tristan Gommendy, driver of PKV Racing, placed seventh at the recently held Mazda Grand Prix of Portland, while teammate Neel Jani finished 12th. The race was presented by Joeâ € ™ s Sports and outdoors in Portland International Raceway in Portland, Oregon.

Driving the # 22 Pay By Touch MegaSpirea PKV Racing Cosworth/DP01/Bridgestone car, started the season Gommendy as pleasure session that marked a new record for the Portland team. In most of the race, running in fifth place. But during the race on June 9, get stuck behind slower traffic for several laps before he had his third stop. As a result, succeeded the loss of track position that benefit both Alex Tagliani and Dan Clarke to take over him, leaving Gommendy and finished in the 7th.

Gommendy said the greatest thing in the race was the emphasis behind Daiziel, Junqueira and Servia, which were slower and had lost many time before his third pit stop. With regrets, says MegaSpirea the Pay By Touch PKV Racing team would have finished in 5th place, if these incidents did not happen. However, he was optimistic that the leadership had improved, it's a great help to the team. He added that continuing to work hard for the cars and also improve their all their tireless efforts will be in the next career in Cleveland.

Despite a car champion novice with some experience in the DP01 and the new champ car tracks, is so fascinating that Gommendy continues to show improvement every time he's on the track. This Frenchman is now in the top-10 in two of his first four races of the championship events: the debut Las Vegas, where he was 5, and more recently in Portland, where he placed 7. He also finished 11th and 13th in Long Beach and Houston, respectively, where he was in competition very strong when leading the race with three-time series champion Sebastien Bourdais before making late race stops for extra fuel. Qualified in the top-10 three times in his first four races, is 27 and lives in Paris, France, the ninth in Long Beach, Houston and the eighth-high fifth season recently in Portland. Moreover, with 56 points, which ranks eighth in the championship and third in the Roshfrans Rookie of the Year race.

Driving the # 21 Red Bull Gulfstream PKV Racing car Cosworth/DP01/Bridgestone, Jani began as pleasure 10a. But the new procedure used a standing start in Champ Car World Series for up two places in the first round. He, however, was not able to achieve fuel consumption than the other drivers were getting. This forced him and his car into the pits for two to five laps earlier than many of the other riders. As a result, was sent back to the field. Neither was able to offset their lost places because of the difficult 1.964 miles, 12-turn permanent road course PIR.

Jani said he had to pit early each task, the Red Bull Gulfstream PKV Racing. This was the reason why he went all the way on the field and had no place in the top 10. He said the track was very difficult for a driver who was delivering, so when I was behind other drivers, I was trapped in his place. As for himself, the main problem was his goal to face before anyone else.

Jani, 23 old native of Jens, Switzerland, is also a champion car neophyte. It was one of the top-10 runners in two of four events this year in Las Vegas, where he placed 10th in the season opener, and Long Beach where he finished 7th. On the other hand, was in 16th place in Houston, where he was running in point 4, when it became out of the race. On the other hand, has also qualified in the top-10 in three of the first four races this year. These include a season on the Houston team, where he was 4th, his debut in Las Vegas, where he was ninth, and recently in Portland, where he was on the 10th.

Jania € ™ s father, who is from India has been a member program development driver for Red Bull since 2005. And in 2006, was a test driver for Scuderia Toro Rosso Formula One Team. In the championship classification, which is 11th with 43 points, whereas in the Rookie classification Roshfrans per year, is 6.

PKV Racing has qualified in the top-10 five times in nine attempts. Includes Gommendy € ™ s 5th place starting position this year, setting a new record for the team. Apart from that, also finished in the top-10 in six occasions in the RIP, with a win by Cristiano da Matta in 2005.

On June 18 and 19, the team will test at Road America in Elkhart Lake, Wisconsin. Meanwhile, June 22-24 is the next race for the Grand Prix of Cleveland, to be held at the temporary circuit at the airport of Burke Lakefront Airport in Cleveland, Ohio. Round # 5 of the 2007 Champ Car World Series Grand Prix of Cleveland will be televised live on CBS at 1:00 pm (ET).

The Mazda Grand Prix of Portland is part of Mazda Motor Corporation. Apart from manufacturing quality auto parts like wipers Mazda, the company also is known to the world of auto racing, where success is two-rotor, three-rotor, rotor and four vehicles. Private pilots have also had considerable success with stock and modified Mazda Wankel engine.

Mazda competition in race started on 20 October 1968. This was when two Mazda Cosmo Sport 110S coupes entered the 84 hours race at ultra-endurance marathon route in NÃ ¼ rburgring. A car ended up as the pleasure and the remaining quarter broke an axle after 81 hours.
