97luminals Posted August 23, 2004 Report Posted August 23, 2004 im gettin tired of my 4 dr lumina 3100. I want a manual, but i like my v6 sound so i dont really want to go an import so............ im thinking about gettin a z34 lumina 5spd dump the engine and get a 3800s/c i know its been done. anyone know how much power the stock trannys hold out and how much would this kinda swap cost?

Euro Posted August 24, 2004 Report Posted August 24, 2004 an automatic L67 swap is pretty easy, matting a 5spd to it would be alot tougher. I dont think ive seen it done. maybe once on a cavy that was posted here a while back. Quote
97luminals Posted August 24, 2004 Author Report Posted August 24, 2004 wasnt the owner of http://www.luminasupercharged.com had a 5spd l67 4 dr lumina with a z34 front?? Quote

I dont think ive seen it done. maybe once on a cavy that was posted here a while back. it is done all the time in Fieros Fieros are also much lighter then a w-body. Would need some massive internal upgrades. Quote
97luminals Posted August 24, 2004 Author Report Posted August 24, 2004 liek wut internal work?? if its an auto i presume should be all to diffcult but im jsut more concerned would the stock 5spd tranny hold out the power and would it mount to the darn engine. Quote
sl3196 Posted August 24, 2004 Report Posted August 24, 2004 For an auto you can just use the tranny that comes with the l67. I'm not sure exactly what tranny to use for a 5-spd. Quote
slick Posted August 24, 2004 Report Posted August 24, 2004 Either the Getrag 282 or 284. http://www.westcoastfiero.com/ Might help with the tranny stuff. Quote
EurosportZ34 Posted August 24, 2004 Report Posted August 24, 2004 im thinking about gettin a z34 lumina 5spd dump the engine and get a 3800s/c i know its been done. Why on earth would you "dump" the engine from a Z34? :? I'm not seeing a decent reason here... Quote
midnight rider Posted August 24, 2004 Report Posted August 24, 2004 Maybe he just wants to be different. Who knows? I got the same reaction when I put a 350 small block in my mazda truck....lol Quote
GP1138 Posted August 24, 2004 Report Posted August 24, 2004 im thinking about gettin a z34 lumina 5spd dump the engine and get a 3800s/c i know its been done. Why on earth would you "dump" the engine from a Z34? :? I'm not seeing a decent reason here... Because he's got a burning urge to drop an L67 in there. Just look at his lack of punctuation, shows how fired up he is about it! Quote

sl3196 Posted August 24, 2004 Report Posted August 24, 2004 L67 has alot more aftermarket parts available. That would be my choice as well. Quote
97luminals Posted August 24, 2004 Author Report Posted August 24, 2004 leave my puncutaiton alone........i dont like the 3.4 dohc engines personally. not much aftermarket. and i like the 3800 ride alot more. plus the 3.4 dohc are mantinance screamers Quote
97luminals Posted August 24, 2004 Author Report Posted August 24, 2004 wut do u think the total $$$ would be in the end of gettin this acutally going Quote
Baddflash Posted August 25, 2004 Report Posted August 25, 2004 wasnt the owner of http://www.luminasupercharged.com had a 5spd l67 4 dr lumina with a z34 front?? Tom's car was auto and it had the Razzi kit although it had the Z spoiler and grille. edit: http://lumina.itgo.com/swap.htm Quote
Baddflash Posted August 25, 2004 Report Posted August 25, 2004 http://www.cardomain.com/memberpage/526752/15 DHP custom tuned the 3800 pcm to work with the 5-speed and his wimpy tranny holds up to it so I think the 282 and 284 should be fine. Quote
Euro Posted August 25, 2004 Report Posted August 25, 2004 yeah im interested in the estimated cost to swap an L67, cost including everything Quote
97luminals Posted August 25, 2004 Author Report Posted August 25, 2004 well i been talking to more ppl, the 4t60e tranny wouldnt hold out the l67, and the 282 tranny is jsut to much for my blood. I mite jsut get it keep it auto spend about 2000 for tranny, engine, and electronics, and than littlle extra for other stuff.... i should make all the money back by selling my current car afterwards Quote
97luminals Posted August 25, 2004 Author Report Posted August 25, 2004 i kno that ..... i was hopin the 5spd 4t60e would hold it Quote
GutlessSupreme Posted August 25, 2004 Report Posted August 25, 2004 i kno that ..... i was hopin the 5spd 4t60e would hold it the 4t60e is a 4 speed automatic... Quote
