gUiTo Posted March 29, 2005 Report Posted March 29, 2005 i have looked my area over and cant find another one.. i am sure there is one to be had i want one for parts. This can be annoying! Quote
digitaloutsider Posted March 29, 2005 Report Posted March 29, 2005 You can use parts from any 2.8/3.1 5-speed (Getrag 282) equipped W-body. What exactly are you looking for? Quote
gUiTo Posted March 29, 2005 Author Report Posted March 29, 2005 honestly i need a set of heads. I was hoping i could use the heads i got but i guess i need a newer intake. The heads i got came off a 1995 Lumina 10154743 casting. The guy i got them from said they should work fine... from what i am hearing he is wrong. Quote

A 1995 Lumina has a 3100 engine, and I don't think the heads are compatible. You'd need heads from a 3.1 MPFI engine. Anything from a Cutlass Supreme, earlier Lumina, Grand Prix, or Regal 3.1 should work. Hell, you could get them off a Cavalier with a 3.1 engine... Quote
digitaloutsider Posted March 29, 2005 Report Posted March 29, 2005 Yep. At first I thought he wanted 5-speed parts. Quote
THe_DeTAiL3R Posted March 29, 2005 Report Posted March 29, 2005 You don't need 5-speed parts for your engine. Theres shitloads of 2.8/3.1 parts at any junkyard. Quote
rudefyet Posted March 29, 2005 Report Posted March 29, 2005 you need a set of 87-93 (or 94 in Chevrolet cars) FWD 2.8/3.1L heads Quote
no1kicker Posted March 30, 2005 Report Posted March 30, 2005 If you have the 3100 heads, why not put 3100 intakes on as well? Since you're stripping to the block. The 3100 top end will give you a bit more pep. Quote
dbtk2 Posted March 30, 2005 Report Posted March 30, 2005 If you have the 3100 heads, why not put 3100 intakes on as well? Since you're stripping to the block. The 3100 top end will give you a bit more pep. Ditto. You'll need the lower intake, plenum, tb, vacuum lines, coolant pipe, exhaust manifolds, and a few other misc. things, but it will give a good boost in power and gas mileage, and you already have the heads so why not...

White93z34 Posted March 31, 2005 Report Posted March 31, 2005 i dread the day when you can't find a good set of heads for the 3.1 Quote
JoroCorona Posted March 31, 2005 Report Posted March 31, 2005 Not be able to find a set of heads for a 3X00... heh, that will be the day of the apocolypse. The 2.8/3.1/3100/3400 have been used in so many different cars, they cant be hard to find. Quote
