    Not for a guy like me. You open enough hoods and you'll understand what was changed. Then you can dazzle the GP world when you know what fits which platform.

    Take a bit of time and play around at a junkyard. Look over the LeSloppers and realize they are basically Bonnevilles that could never get a SC. Park Aves are essentially the same as a Riviera, the Goober Patrol, Gimpala, Regal and Monte Crisco were all the same.
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.

    What car is the Goober Patrol supposed to be? But if you lined up every car with a 3800, I couldn't tell the difference in what's different. They all look the same to me.

    You could remove the spare and then could've saved your seat.

    Highlighted to make it a bit easier. It's a GP hahahahahaha
    Take a longer look. Take a Bonneville airbox and look at it next to a gp one. etc. Huge differences when you start messing with them a lot.

    The air boxes are obvious lol. I'm taking about like no engine cover, air box, etc. Just straight motor lol. I know the 3.8L in the early 6th generation SE's have a different throttle body. I noticed they have two hoses coming off of them instead of one like mine.

    The additional hose port is blocked on yours. Reason for that hose was a different transmission that used the hose for the modulator. Something that your transmission does with an electronic soleniod and it's one of it's biggest problem areas.

    My HUD has issues sometimes. Every once in awhile, I will be driving at night and the HUD will just die. Can hardly see the numbers on it. I'll try turning it off and back on and no luck. Then the next day it works perfect. Any idea?

    Most don't consider it to be better. That one thing was old school and better because the solenoids the factory used would fail often. The pumps in that trans though couldn't spin the rpm and would cavitate etc.
