Thinking of swapping a 3.6l into an Avanti

01-21-2008, 03:03 PM

Thinking of swapping a 3.6L (LY7) RWD into an Avanti.

Would like to obtain some information from someone who has already accomplished, or in the process of, a 3.6L RWD swap into another RWD vehicle.

Also, what is different in the crankshaft and blocks between the FWD and RWD LY7?

Any difference in the motor ECM's?
