The 3400/3500 swap is easier and will likely produce a better performance platform.

The 3800 has been done in a Beretta but the results are still somewhat inconclusive and it's, for the most part, not worth the aggravation.

However I'm sure there will be some dissenters. LOL!

Please don't post in the archive. Yes it can be done and has. From what I hear it's hard to do. A 3400 or 3500 swap would cost less, take less time and less work. What year do you have?

You'll get the same response as you did in your other thread.

It's not a popular swap, and for good reason. And it is certainly NOT easy.

There are easier and well documented alternatives.
