From what I remember any 94 or 95 (L code) 3.8 is a direct fit, and
earlier "L codes" may need minor changeovers.

Any 3800 NA from 95-99 will be practically an exact drop in w/o fuss as
they're all 3800 Series II's. The problem arises when you want to swap 3800
na engines for SC ones. As you didn't state NA or SC here, I can't give any
more info at this time. The earlier 92-94 Series I's will fit, but will not
work electronically as they used OBD I, while the Series II's use OBD II.
There is also the issue of Trans too. the earlier used 4T60-E's while the
newer ones used 4T65-E's & 4T65-E HD's.
