    the only 3.8L Buick motors i know of are coil pack based Commodore V6 engines. You have the option of the '3800' motor out of VN to VR commodores, or the Ecotec out of the VS to VY models.

    If its the VS to VY one, watch the alternators in them.

    If you're looking to actually buy one of the Commodore motors, have a look at ABC Auto Gear... they have them advertised for $950. There would be a bit of work involved though.
