I figured you could do it cheaper. Just thought I'd show you how much the kits cost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TurboSedan Posted October 28, 2004 Report Share Posted October 28, 2004 i checked on that 3400 at the body shop. it's in a '99 Grand Am with 37,000 miles. the engine is really clean. i'm going to try picking it up next month. the guy told me $400 for the entire engine and he could gaurantee it too. meanwhile i pulled the 3.1 (and Getrag) out of my Cutlass the other day. i'm going to turbocharge it WITHOUT changing the head gaskets. i am not going to spend alot of time and/or money on this thing since i'm set on the 3400 now. and hell yeah i'm going to have fun blowing this thing up i've already pulled the transmission off; OMG the clutch disc was paper thin :shock: i've also pulled the plenum, injectors and fuel rail, rear exhaust manifold...blah blah... i just need a new clutch kit and a few gaskets and it's going right back in with all of the TGP stuff bolted to it. i need to start bugging Jay about that TGP/5-speed memcal he owes me....
