    Put Lucas tranny stuff in it for now, sounds like you need a new transmission though.

    Not specifically 3800... you shouldn't get a new engine unless you need it or you have a ton of money or something. Ik a good service shop if you need one: Grosse Pointe Shell

    You will need a built trans to handle some power, top swap or turbo are your options to make power really.
