Which L67 should I try to go after?

Well so far I got a 59k engine w/o tranny out of a 03 Bonneville and the junkyard dealer is asking $1200 for it. Im pretty sure the Bonneville will fit nice in my z34 98 Monte Carlo ... what do u guys think other than the pretty steep price which of course i'll haggle

IIRC a W body mount up is the way it mounts. Therefore you'd be better off going with something W body. The H and C bodies aren't going to be abused any less. They are heavier cars on the same drivetrain with the same basic nutbag drivers behind the wheel.

Almost any of the bracketry for an alt should fit fine, go with the best mileage/price.

How do you think an 04 Bonneville L67 will fit?

I know it would. I've done these swaps many times.

Swap the rear exhaust manifold, any emissions stuff that looks different and being a GP, the oil pan/oil pick up tube and engine mount bracket. Poof...it'll drop right in.

Then let me know...usually I got a buddy or two looking for the oil pan/pick up tube/oil filter adapter.
