Quick answer....anything is possible. Detailed answer. Think about what that would require. Your 3800 series sits in your engine block "sideways." This effects your engine mounts, your computer mounts, your firewall, your drivetrain, your....and the list goes on and on. If you're putting a small block in your Monte then you'll have to put in RWD. You'll need a new front axle, you'll have to find a rear axle that fits your car. You'll need a new transmission. You'll need a new shifter. You'll have to drastically modify the underbody of the car to get a driveshaft in there. You'll have to.... Am I making my point yet? You would end up putting so much money into this car it'd be cheaper to just buy a late 80's Monte and drop your small block in there. Your engine mounts are already there and your driveline is already there. So is it possible....yes, but only because anything is possible.
