96 DOHC into a 95 3100 Cutlass?

I've managed to get a package deal of a 1996 40,000 mile 3.4 with all belt driven accessories, flywheel, wire harness and computer for $850.

 

Anyone ever do this swap? I dont' think I'll have to much trouble. Shoudnlt I be able to pull the current 3100 out without taking the transmission (4t60E) out?

 

Thanks for any information anyone can supply.

I haven't but am thinking about swapping a '95 LQ1 with my '91 LH0. Swapping the 3.4's are alot easier than the 3.8's cause they were made for our cars. Good-luck, I'm sure I'll need it when I start mine.

You should be able to use the 3100's 4t60e, unless the gear ratios are different. Umm, but since the 3.4 is a 96 motor, and that means its OBD II then your gonna have to get a pre-96 harness to make it work in the car.

final drive on the 3100 4t60e is 3.33 (or something close to that) and final drive on the 3.4 4t60e is 3.43.

Actually my Cutlass is a late 95. It has OBDII.
