Recommended Posts

i'm thinkin about it guys. my 3.4 engine just died and i need to get the car fixed for a few reasons. i dont want another 3.4...well pre monte 3.4 anyway. would this be possible. i'm talkin series 2 3800 and maybe the s/c application. i dont think there is much of a difference. would it fit with tranny and cradle and all?

you woulden't be the first.

 

you can swap in a 95+ 3.4 very easily and pick up a few extra HP doin it.

the l36 could use your current transmission (3800 SII)...i know 96 and 97 models still used the 4t60-e

I would just spend the money on a newer Grand Prix and scrap the Chevy. JMO though.

oh? then why woulnt the l67 fit? only the s/c difference right? how much work would this require? i mean to fit it...wire it...computers and what not...any approx. cost? i really dont feel like wiring and shit...too many experiences with bad wiring jobs.

ok..well...how about this...i need some opinions. which is easier and cheaper or w/e...

 

95+ 3.4 swap with a turbo

95+ 3.4 swap with s/c

L36 swap transformed to s/c

 

??? i'm also open for suggestions.

95+ 3.4 and build a turbo setup for it with spare money / time.

i'll foreward that question onto the people who have done this before :lol:

 

as far as i know you need to build a custom crossover (will a tgp one work???), intercooler, turbo and some other stuff.

go get a 3x00, it bolts in, uses the stock tranny, just need the 3100 chip and wiring harness if u dont wanna move the 4 or 5 wires that are different from the stock harness. the 3x00 is cheap 2 buy, simple 2 maintain, spunky and go forever.

any site with information on this?

Cheapest , fastest go buy something else to drive and leave that car a 3.4L. Then you could take your time fixing the motor.

If you need a site on how to pull out a motor, then drop in one that is a direct bolt in, and uses the same harness that is in your car(besides for the 4 or 5 plugs, which are cake to move around), then doing an L67 swap definately isn't for you.

i was talking more about how to hook up the turbo and how to wire the shit...not pull the engine swap which, i do realize is a simple bolt on.

It wouldn't fit because of the extra power. the 4T65-E is more of an HD tranny. Plus, the 3.4 is a 60* V6, and the l67 is a 90*, so the casing is different, IIRC.

What the hell car came with a supercharged 3400?

None, but there are a few custom ones here and there. I know of one in particular, I can't remember who did it though.
