The swap begins!
So about a week ago, my 2.8 kicked the bucket, so i tore it all down, and today, my buddy and I pulled the motor, and put a piece of pipe under each exhaust manifold and CARRIED IT onto my deck, stairs and all, my arms and a** are gonna fall off. This weekend Im grabbin a 3.4 outa a 94 firebird. Any body have any tips, im aware of the plug in the head of the 3.4, and i have a 3.1 flywheel comin from one of our fellow members, im gonna do true duals(hacked the crap outa my y pipe with a sawzall, couldnt lossen the bolts, broke my 3/8 snap on rachet), Anything im overlooking?

if you can I'd like to see some pictures of the sensor on the side of the block of the 2.8 and 3.4 I know the sensor has to be moved on the 3.4

If your gonna go with true duals get a H-pipe otherwise it will sound like a Ryce burner. And I wouldn't really recomend true duals with a V6.

sounds like your on a roll so far. Go to my 3.4 thread and bring it back to the top if you have any questions.

Take lots and lots of pictures because I'm building a 3.4l to go into my 91 firebird as soon as I get my hands on a t-5 swap and a welder to build the customer headers I need.
