ya there a few people that boost a 3.4, but very few. there really isnt to much of a point to turbo our motors, you get around 330 horse an if u just used the money that u bought the whole turbo system you could just get a v8 with the same power. but heres a link to the only guy i fond that would do this: http://www.force-fed-fabrications.com/index2.htm

i dont see why the v8 would have any problem fitting? it would be alot of work, but i helped y friend put a 305 in an s10 a few years back lol..i agree though it would be cool, but i think you would be getting scewed in power for what you eould be spending..if you do it post pictures haha

if your still looking to rebuild your 3.4 i saw something where they put a top end out of a 3400 grand am on the camaro and saw a difference in the way it ran, and power-wise too. if i still had mine thats what i would be investing in.

^^^i'm sure it would work, but after all that time and effort you would wish you would have picked another engine to swap in there.
