tdvs Posted January 25, 2009 Report Posted January 25, 2009 Did the pre '95s come with a 3.4 and full gauge cluster? Tom Quote
slick Posted January 25, 2009 Report Posted January 25, 2009 No. No Regal's came with the 3.4 DOHC period. Quote
tdvs Posted January 25, 2009 Author Report Posted January 25, 2009 No. No Regal's came with the 3.4 DOHC period. Well that answers that. Back to the drawing board Thanks Slick. Tom Quote
tdvs Posted January 25, 2009 Author Report Posted January 25, 2009 convert one to 3.4! Might be a consideration if I had, or wanted a Regal, but there is a totally different and unrelated reason for my question, other than the obvious. Just didn't want to get into a long drawn out explanation about a goofy project I'm working on Tom Quote
Spilly Posted January 25, 2009 Report Posted January 25, 2009 I wanna convert mine to the LQ1, baad. Quote
LuckoftheGTP Posted January 27, 2009 Report Posted January 27, 2009 No affence, but why you have a nice 3800. Turbo the baby. Quote

88Regal Limited Posted January 27, 2009 Report Posted January 27, 2009 Was thinking about an Lq1 for my car, but there's just too much work involved where as a 3400 swap is quite strait forward, and very responsive to mods, and many factory parts interchange with it and other 60*'s unlike the DOHC motor. I've been looking around at options haha Quote
mfewtrail Posted January 29, 2009 Report Posted January 29, 2009 No affence, but why you have a nice 3800. Turbo the baby. That Series I 3800 might be a bit hard to tune...but I think definitions for them might be available now for custom tuning. Quote
digitaloutsider Posted January 29, 2009 Report Posted January 29, 2009 The L27 also sucks, so... Quote
Spilly Posted January 30, 2009 Report Posted January 30, 2009 How does an L27 suck? I have 217,000 miles on it, it makes 30 less horsepower than an L36, and it pulls balls. You series 2 and 3 guys needs to get off your high horse. For all the design work they did on those motors from the L27, they certainly didn't manage to squeeze a significant amount power out of them without strapping a blower onto them. Quote
mfewtrail Posted January 30, 2009 Report Posted January 30, 2009 The L27 also sucks, so... Retract that statement! Series 1 3800 > all other 3800's. No really, the L27 isn't that bad. It'd probably do very well w/ a turbo... Quote
