AWeb80 Posted February 19, 2006 Report Posted February 19, 2006 On my 94 3100....will a newer 3100 plenum directly bolt on? ..and also, will 3400 plenum directly bolt on.....I want to polish the plenum....but also put a newer one on it they will fit. If only certain ones will fit, please list which ones will. thank. Quote
5speedz34 Posted February 19, 2006 Report Posted February 19, 2006 I think so, post on 60 they know all about this. I would just the 3400 swap/or top end. Quote
RareGMFan Posted February 19, 2006 Report Posted February 19, 2006 I would just the 3400 swap/or top end. An '00 on up 3100 flows about the same. Quote
THe_DeTAiL3R Posted February 19, 2006 Report Posted February 19, 2006 Isn't the only difference between 00+ 3x00s the actual cylinder bore? Only like a 15hp difference or so... Quote
GutlessSupreme Posted February 19, 2006 Report Posted February 19, 2006 Isn't the only difference between 00+ 3x00s the actual cylinder bore? Only like a 15hp difference or so... I think so. besides that, same heads and intakes. be aware that the '00+ EGR is not the same as your old one.. though you might just be able to swap valves to avoid needing an adaptor plate. I'm not sure if the wiring's different. Quote
ToroToro Posted February 19, 2006 Report Posted February 19, 2006 Dont forget that you will need to switch over to roller rocker heads. Unless you have the intentions of just bolting the "big" UIM to the stock lower, but that isn't going to do you any good...most likely make it run worse. I dont even know if a "big" upper would bolt to a stock lower... Quote
TeeJay3800 Posted February 19, 2006 Report Posted February 19, 2006 The '00+ 3100 plenum, and the 3400 plenum are identical, right? (other than the lettering of course) Quote

94CutlassXtreme Posted February 19, 2006 Report Posted February 19, 2006 If you want a new 3100 or 3400 plenum, you need to swap the lower intake manifold as well. There are less mounting bolts on the newer plenums then on the old, 6 vs like 12 I believe. Quote
slick Posted February 19, 2006 Report Posted February 19, 2006 And, being you have a 94, if you want to switch to the newer style, I believe(talking to a lot of my beretta friends lately), you will have to notch the lower intake manifold. Quote
ToroToro Posted February 19, 2006 Report Posted February 19, 2006 Or switch to roller rocker heads, which would be more benificial by far. 94-95 3100s got the smallest valves of them all. Quote

Yep, definately beneficial! But, I don't know how much Adam wants to get into it. IMO, 00+ 3X00 heads and lower intake manifold plus 3500 intake manifold sounds like fun to me. Quote
