Recommended Posts

Does anyone know if the LQ1 3.4 DOHC engine that came in 95-97 MC Z34's is available thru GM.

you mean 96-97?

 

X2.

 

i have seen 0 mile LQ1s on ebay before, but i wouldn't count on them being availible through GM, and definitely not for any reasonable cost.

it would be best to find a 94-95 LQ1 in that case, since the 96-97 uses different EGR, coolant sensors, TB, intakes, and a few other things...

You need a 95 motor or older cuz your OBDI I believe. I'd try to find a motor from a 95 Monte if I were you, then you can literally just put the motor in and be done. Other wise with a newer motor you'd have to convert to OBDII and mess with wiring and the computer and all that BS. If your interested I have a 96 Monte Z you can pick up for $1200, just throwin that out there

What you need for a direct replacement is a 94-95 motor. OBD 1.5

a 94-95 is a direct replacement, but the engine management has nothing to do with it...

 

my 3100 is living proof.

91-93 will not have the extra cam sensor, a different alternator, different PCV routing, different crankshaft balancer, is speed density vs MAF etc etc

you may be able to use a 96-97 bottom end and install your 94-95 top end on it

Lol me and my step-dad just put a motor in a 95 GP and ended up using a 2001 3100 bottom end.

there is a guy over on 60*v6 that has one compleatly rebuilt for 400

Posted

i think it was in reference to a 95 3100 with 01 3100 bottom....

which has what to do with the OP

 

Notta!

 

and to answer the original question, NO GM does not carry ANY LQ1s anymore... the engine plant where they were built, in St Catherines Ontario has not produced them in a long long time
