    It's possible. Not sure why you'd want to though?

    It's been discussed before and it's possible but there is just too much other stuff involved to justify doing it.

    well when they (lunati, comp cams, whom ever it was) did a swap on 2 of the cylinders it changed the firing order, made more power through out the rpm range, made the sbc run smother and changed the exhaust note. if all could be had with the simple change of a cam for the 3800 I would surely be game and I dont think I would be the only one.
    but I was kinda looking an answer to the awefull sound these motors put out (unless you spend a grand on exhaust).

    even if you spend a grand on exhaust it sounds like crap still.
