Research your car to find out if it has a series 2, 3, 4 etc. 3.8 in it. You will want to find the exact same engine so you don't have problems with the sensors etc. If you want a supercharged GP then buy a GTP. There are still lots of them out there and they are cheap and ready to drive. Building your own is a huge job as you also need to change all the electronics, the transmission the fuel system (2 stage fuel pump is required) and a few other thing that I can't think of at the moment.
