Call your local salvage yard. The 3.1 is common to buick, chev, pontiac.

Should work but you will need a PCM from the 3.8 as well as a wiring harness. Your transmission should handle it as long as you don't go with a supercharged version. Try cherry-auto.com or car-part.com to help you search for an engine.

Any of the 91-94 3.8's from GM will mount right in. I'm not sure which tranny the 3.1 has, but the 4T60E is the tranny that the 3800 works with. I'd find a wrecked grand prix or regal GS from 97 or newer, and swap the engine and tranny, you'd have the fastest 92 regal around if you did that.

I hope that since July 17, 2005 he's found a new bad engine fast.
