95 3.1L Power

Hi All,

im new to this group and the car. I have 1995 Camaro with the 3.1L and I have heard that i can take the from the heads up from the 3.8L GTP with the supercharger. is this true? really want to figure out how to get more power out of this engine without swapping out the entire motor.

thanks in advance.

If ya really want a fast 3.8 all ya gotta do is sell that 95 (that is NOT a third gen F body , the exclusive focus of this website, BTW) and buy an 89 TTA

Re: 95 3.1L Power

1: Your car is a 4th generation Camaro (1993-2002), not a Third Generation (1982-1992)

2: Are you sure your car is a 3.1? GM discontinued the RWD 3.1 with the end of the Third Gens. A 1995 should be a 3.4.

3: To answer your question. No. your 3.4 is a Chevy derived 60 degree V6 while the 3.8 is a Buick based, 90 degree V6. Two totally different engine architectures.
