Does anyone know if it really matters where the 3.4L comes from? The main reason im asking is because i may have some problems finding a 3.4 out of a camaro, and there are alot of 3.4's outta impalas and such up here. thanks

when the fwd motors went gen III (93) nearly nothing is useable with our gen 1 motors.

there are HUGE differences.

that's my friend Vegeta from ClubGP.com

he know's his FWD cars.

so even if i were to drop a complete 3.4 from a fwd car it wouldnt fit?

main issue , besides the induction set up is the motor mounts. those sphrerical torque arms (dogbones) , gotta deal with it.

It was quoted on this site once before (can;t remember who) you can use the 3.4L from a FWD... BUT you have to redrill the transmission holes for the bolts redesign the Motor mounts, get the wiring harness to I believe.

So I would say look hard for the 3.4 in a Camaro, headaches in finding the engine will save you head aches later when you swap it in.

I think i may attempt this
i can get a newer FWD 3.4 for pretty cheap, im gonna check with some local gm mechanics if they have any advise, and ill let everyone know if i try it
thanks for the help

Wow, that's gonna be a hell of a project to get into! But good luck, and keep us posted with pictures and tech info!!

my mom has a 92 3.1 olds the einges do look the same have the exact same parts jsut a different location. I almspot think her car can smoke my car its light and has alllot of power more then my car ever did. BTW those cars are a bitch to do a tuneup on try gettin to the back plugs almost impossible but can be done

They're not to hard if you remove the motor mounts and pull the motor forward. Finding something to pull the motor with would be the hardest part.

Thats what i ended up doin i had my friend pull it forward i also hada remove the alternator so i could get my hand back there. Its just very time consuming.
