The air filter is refered to as an intake silencer.
No
A 3800 supercharger can fit on a 3400 engine with some modifications, but it's not a direct bolt-on. The 3400 and 3800 engines have different mounting points and intake designs, so you'll need to adapt the supercharger and possibly the intake manifold. Additionally, ensure that the supporting components, such as fuel delivery and tuning, are also upgraded to handle the increased power.
no... its a 3.8 liter V6 motor...
I have a 1999 with the 3800 engine. The owner's manual says the horsepower is 205 without the supercharger and 240 with the supercharger.
Neglect to replace the supercharger oil.
To change the supercharger belt on a 3800 engine, first ensure the vehicle is off and cool. Remove the serpentine belt by loosening the tensioner pulley with a wrench and sliding the belt off. Then, take off the supercharger belt by loosening the tensioner for that belt and removing it from the pulleys. Install the new supercharger belt by routing it according to the belt diagram, ensuring it sits properly in the grooves, and then reapply tension to the tensioner.
To change a 3800 supercharger, first ensure the engine is cool and disconnect the battery. Remove any components obstructing access, such as the intake manifold and associated hoses. Unbolt the supercharger from the engine, carefully detach it, and replace it with the new unit, ensuring proper alignment. Reassemble all parts and reconnect the battery before starting the engine to check for any issues.
Yes, you can install a supercharger on a non-supercharged 3800 engine, but it requires significant modifications. You'll need a compatible supercharger kit, which typically includes the supercharger unit, necessary brackets, pulleys, and possibly new injectors and a fuel pump to accommodate the increased power. Additionally, tuning the engine's ECU is essential to ensure optimal performance and reliability. It's recommended to consult with a professional or experienced mechanic for the installation process.
it wont come compatibile but you can always make it
To install a supercharger on a GM 3800 engine, first, gather the necessary tools and components, including the supercharger kit, gaskets, and any required hardware. Begin by removing the intake manifold and any components obstructing access to the engine. Then, follow the kit instructions to mount the supercharger, ensuring proper alignment and sealing with gaskets. Finally, reconnect all removed components, adjust the engine's tuning as needed, and check for any leaks before starting the engine.
The GTP is supercharged and the the GT is just the 3800 engine without a supercharger
To install a supercharger on a stock Series II 3800 engine, start by gathering the necessary components, including the supercharger kit, mounting brackets, intake manifold, and any required gaskets. Remove the existing intake manifold and components to access the engine block. Follow the kit instructions to mount the supercharger, ensuring proper alignment and securing all connections. Finally, reassemble the intake system, check for any leaks, and tune the engine for optimal performance.
