Ok, so my engine is knocking in my 2000 grand prix gtp and would have to be rebuilt. I have a 3800 na block from a 2003 impala that is in great shape. I was curious if the block from the impala could be used as the base for the engine and I can just take all the supercharger specific parts off the gtp engine and put onto the impala engine and put the whole thing in the car? I know there is differences in compression ratios but I don't know the specifics about anything related to that which is why this question is being asked. I also do plan to rebuild the block from the impala if i use it which I would prefer to do since it is in great shape I don't have to worry about any damage which I may find if I tear the GTP engine apart.
I hope my question makes sense, if not please ask and I'll clarify. Also my apologies if this has been asked before. I tried to go through everything as best I could to make sure a very similar questions had not already been answered. There are some resources that I can't even find that I know use to exist, such as the top swap thread.
In any event, Thank you
