3.1 to 350 question
I am swapping my 3.1 to a 350. Will my 350bolt to my 700r4 transmission?

am i going to have any problems? as far as i knew, the 450 would bolt right up
If you are considering an engine swap in the pursuit of more power, please be aware that The RWD 60* iron-headed engines are the only DIRECT bolt in applications that fit 3rd Gen V6 F-bodies.
This includes the the following engines:
2.8L from the Fiero, Camaro, Firebird and TBI/Carb'd S10's
3.1L from the Camaro and Firebird (1990 - 1992)
3.4L from the Camaro and Firebird (1993 - 1994)

Re: 3.1 to 350 question
The 350 will NOT bolt up - that's why that info is in the sticky.
V6 trannies have a different bellhousing from V8, and I'm not sure they'll handle the power IF you did swap bellhousings.
