Could bore you guys with the whole story, but who cares..... Can I stuff my 305TBI out of my 91' Formula into my Slow poke 82'Regal 3.8 NA? Would I need to swap out drive shafts and/or rear ends?
91' 305TBI fit question.....

Yes on the engine.
Driveline? Only if you are using the transmission from the Formula.
The rearend will hold up fine. Same size in both cars.

Yes I would be using the Formi's Trani as well. Current trani in Regal shifts great but If I'm gonna do the swap might as well bring the 700R4 from the Formi. The formi's rear end stock I believe is 3.08, should slap that up there also.... Probably will never happen but it is good to know I have possibilities. Thanks!
It'd be a lot less work to just swap out the gears in the Buick. You'll probably want something closer to a 3.42 or 3.73 anyway.
Stock in my pokey 3.8NA I think came standard 2.41? As you suggested 3.42 or 3.73 would be nice, 3.42 I think at best. Jump on the E-Way back and forth to work. Already have the 3.08 so? I want to sell the Bird, but the ole'lady thinks I should keep it. If I'm gonna keep it i'm gonna gank the power, stick it in the Buick, roll the formi shell in the barn & buy a winter car. Not gonna drive the Buick in the winter and feel guilty driving the Formi in the winter. Need a beater
