engine swapping
If ya stick to my 3.4 swap upgrade, I really doubt if ya gotta worry about computers.
IF ya do the 350 swap, yes & no.
Either you will be ripping out alot of stuff or you'll be rewiring from here until a month of Sundays.

HEY CamaroVroom listen to KED85 the 3.4L swap is the best swap for V6, I know you want a V8 but I'll tell you what other people have told me, if you want a v8 then BUY A V8 car, you have no idea how much wireing and changes you have to make to put in a v8, just to much work, the 3.4L swap is the best and if you get a stroker kit you can bump up the TOTAL horse power to 170 HP and tourque to 200 ft ponds or more.
Here is the best answer I can offer ya.
Read it throughly. Ask any questions you want and we'll try to help ya thru it.
But atleast 15 have done this swap and we are all very pleased for what the effort & cost was.

PS plan on a new tranny before or after this swap. We all found out the hard (but smiling all the) way! OH, you will need new tires too!
Where ya find the 3.4 is your call. Many here know of places thru the internet, tho. I got mine at the place I write about.
This 3.4 swap is only one solution.
IF ya need a V-8, ya gotta buy a V-8 car, that decision is so much in your favor.
