FINISHED!! 3400 5-speed swap w/ pics


Pabz

Recommended Posts

thats some awesome work Pabz, if i were you i'd buy/build an ALDL cable and get some scans to see how the 3400 is liking the 3.1 chip, i'd consider a custom chip from Ben tailored to the car down the road.

 

i see you had to swap to the newer quick connect fuel line fittings, how exactly are those tied to the existing lines?

 

i reallllly like the quality in your slave cyl hydraulic line, that looks like a good piece.

 

the manual is night and day difference in the car isn't it?

 

also. i do believe you have the first cutlass supreme convertible with a manual.

I built a aldl cable, i should test it out. where can i get a copy of the software for my laptop?

 

I mosdef want a chip, i want to run the multitec2 injectors

Ya i was so relieved when it worked. I loved driving it. This felt so natural too! The shifting is soooo smooth.

Once you get the car running well and everything you should seal your underbody with something to prevent that rust from getting any worse!

 

But sweet work on the swap!! It looks awesome.

That's a great job Pabz. Right out of the book of old time hot rod engine swappers.

 

I'd love to have a 5-speed hooked up to my Cutty. No way I'm ready to go thru all that work though.

 

The fact that it's a 90 (low production numbers) makes it even sweeter!

 

Have a cold one or three, you deserve it.

wow that car is fucking sick. major props to you on that in so many areas. one thing i gotta say is tho i have those mufflers and i hate them with a passion. they sound like complete ass, at least on my car. i think theyd probably sound a lot better on an 8cyl
