V6 to V8
Hi,
I am the Chinese in Taiwan, my firebird got a engine problem, maybe also the tranny, I have see you guy talking about the 3.1 or 3.4 sweep, how can I make sure to purchase the complete parts if there is no engineer know GM well?? is it possible to order engine parts and mail to Taiwan?
How about the V8, is that possible to sweep V6 to V8 easily like 3.1.

It's much harder to go to a V8 as the transmissions for the V6 and V8 have different bolt patterns and won't line up.
GM sell a complete 3.4 motor for about 1700 bucks. They can probably ship it anywhere in the world as long as you are willing to pay for shipping
