[&:]well my 95 camaro rosted the 3800 in it, well good news is the guy a work gave me a 3.4 i know it asmaller engine but it was free do i have 2 change wiring harness and do i have 2 change cpu

 

ya you will need to change the wiring harness and the guages are differant for the 3.4 and 3.8 you may need a gauge cluster and cpu as well

 

Yes yes yes yes. You'd be better off selling it and getting another 3.8... How did you blow the engine?

 

i agree with evilkal. sell that thing off and put the money towards another 3.8

 

SELL IT ALL!!!!!!! Sell the F-in car, your house, your dog, your collegebooks and buy a V8. Then gut the cat and then get headers. This is the answer to everything on this f-in site.

 

^^^ in this case it will probably be cheaper and less of a headache to actually sell the 3.4 and go for his original motor.

 

I wouldn't put that 3.4 in, but you aren't going to get much for that engine if you sell it. It would be less work in my opinion to put a 3.8 back in, and probably cheaper by the time it's all said and done.

 

I just got done replacing the 3.8 in my sons car. I was able to find a good used 3.8L, with only 37K mi. Cost me $1100, could have gotten one for $900, but I wanted the low miles. Founda speed shop in town to swap in for $1000. Now the car runs really nice again.

I think this is the way to go. If you are lucky you can pick up a good used engine. And if you are handy you can swap it yourself, but I gotta caution you. the engine comes out the bottom. Not an easy task if you don't have a lift.

I found a good write up on the engine swap on one of these forums. If I find it again I will post the link.

 

Lol I got any deal you could find beat... I bought a 3.8 and had it put in... $650 done and running sweet as hell FTW!

 

i just got a 1993 park ave with a 3800 in it is it the same one
