Hi guys,
I need to replace the timing chain and gears on the Buick 3800 v6 in my '93 VP.
I have a set (crank and cam gears, chain and tensioner) for a VR 3800 v6 and I was wondering if I can use that on my VP's motor.
I can see that I would need to swap my oil pump for a VR one - which I also have spare.
It should all fit, I just don't know if it will run right or not with the different kit fitted.
Anyway, anyone done this before?
Thanks,
Dicko.
