You want us to type everything involved in a EFI swap in a post? There are entire books on the subject. There could be 4 pages just on the fuel system.

If you are talking about a Camaro 3.4 you are using one of the most limited motors GM has made in the last 20 years.

I'm a noob here too, and I hope this is ok. If not, admin feel free to delete.

Heres what I found with a simple google search. I think Gorn was just trying to prompt you to do some research and read, then maybe ask some specific questions.

Idahoboy, if I didn't know better, I'd swear there's just a tad bit of sarcasm in there. Naaaaah, probably just my imagination!
You might want to google "Fiero 3.4 engine swap", and see if anything there helps you. I have a stock Fiero, so I know it's a popular conversion, although the majority of what you'll find will be retaining the original FI system. The 3.4 is also used as a conversion into old M.G.'s, so that's another source you can tap. Otherwise, search how to convert the 3.4 to a carb setup, unless you're wanting to keep FI. Turning the engine "old school" will be much less of a wiring headache, so it depends on what you're after.

Now I just feel bad, Maybe I should spend 70 hours typing that way you could have saved $12 or not have to do a google search. When you get down more direct questions like how do I custom make a high pressure fuel line, or how do I know if any of the original componets are computer safe come back and we may help you.

I have driven to members house and helped them out but I no desire to help someone that puts no effort into a project. You should plan on spending at least 100 hours of research. To do a project like this you need to understand every system in the car, if you dont understand it before the project starts plan on doing everything twice.
