    what your looking for is more then a swap, if one is n/a and the regal is s/c, you'll need tuning for both cars. if both are supercharged its just a swap.

    98 Buick Regal GS, F body brakes, Caddy STS wheels, tinted tails L36 bottom end, lightly ported heads, 1.95 roller rockers, headers, gen 5 N* 3.0 pulley, FSIC, 42 lb injectors, a BrandonHall rebuilt trans, DHP tuned and AEM water/Meth injection https://goo.gl/gpV5kW

    you can but you'll need a n/a regal pcm, and a sc grand prix pcm, and maybe the bcm's as well. or a tuner who can flash the 2 pcms so they work.

    regal and grand prix pcm's are not the same.
