96 sebring coupe engine swap
 
I have a 96 sebring coupe and wanted to beef it up. Is there anything I can do to the original motor or could I swap it to the 3.0 or is there something bigger or better?

I feel ya.....BUT

Forget it......There is far too much involved in getting a different engine to "MATE" with a vehicle that was not designed to accept it. Forget the financial aspect, The grief alone is enough to make your hair stand up.

If you are That persistent.....Buy one that is already set up the way you want it. This will either get you a donor with everyting you will need, Or a Rebuildable to what you wish to achieve.

i saw where somebody said that the 3.0 would fit in the 96-98 body with little to no problems they almost look the same

On the Sebring convertible the 3.0 long block works fine with the 3.0 injectors and lower intake and the 2.5 flywheel. For the convertible that's the best way to get a reliable solid horsepower and torque increase with no crazy mods. I would think others did this swap on the coupe also.
