Default Help finding a 3800 series motor for my 1999 Camaro

I need a new 3800 series II motor for my Camaro and I have checked my local listings on Craigslist in Minnesota but no luck. Does anyone know where I could find one to buy? Thanks

you can use a series 3 3800 motor from any gm car. give you 20 more hp. front drive engine will work. just gota tear it down to the block and heads and put everything from your engine on it.

In the V6 section under drive trains there is a sticky,

Car-Part.com--Used Auto Parts Market will search your local yards. Engine are one of those things that sell cheaper from yard then from craigs list and normal you can find low miles motors. Remember the yard will tell you a FWD motor will not fit. They are going by a manual, the manuals are looking at direct bolt ins with no extra work.
