I have a 1988 detla 88 which recently was totaled out. So here I am with a perfectly good motor with only 64,000 miles on it.
I have a 3800 v6 motor, my question is what vehicles can I drop this motor in? Ive been told any GM within a certain year range. Well does that consist of like Pontiac or Ford or what? I have no clue here. Im hoping to get some suggestions here.
I would appreciate it if anyone has any reference to make, model and years of what cars I can put this motor into. First initial thought was to find another olds 88, but just dont think it would do. The car I had was given to me by my grandfather and just thought I would get away from that model now that the car is gone.
I hope someone out there can help me and give me some ideas. Thanks a bunch for taking the time to read.

I don't know about the compatability with other GM's, but definitely not Ford since they are not GM.
Sorry I'm not any help, hopefully someone knows the answer!
 
I have that exact same car and exact same engine (vin C). You can transfer that engine into any olds: cutlass, 88, 98, regency. Buick: park ave, regal, century. Pontiac: bonneville. usually all gm production 4 doors or station wagons of the 85-90 range you can stuff that bad boy into.
