v6 swap
Hey guys i have a 94 cavy with a 2.2,I what to swap a v6 in the car.Knowing the 3.1 will fit, would a 3100 or a 3400 fit?Has it been done before?What would i use for a tranny?The only reason i what to do this is my motor is very weak and i thought this would be a good project.Anyway thanks for your info.
Kyle

Re: v6 swap
The 3100 and 3400 will not fit,has to be the 3.1 with lots of changes.The transmission is differant anf the same with the wiring harness and computer.It is not probally worth doing this and the cheaper way is to replace the 2.2 with another 2.2 or buy another car with a 3.1 which is your decision.

Largest fit to date without cutting the engine bay at all... Northstar V8    Another popular swap is the S/c'd 3800 series II motor   Its not a walk in the park direct swap by no means, a little engine sub frame customizing is required, but they both fit just fine.

Re: v6 swap
I though that a 3400 would fit, i mean if 3.1 can fit a 3400 is not that different.Thanks, i knew that of all people you would know.
P.s i also seen, years ago in "Super street" mag that some one put a northstar in a older vw golf, a late 80s body style.

Re: v6 swap
There were 2 3.1s in 1994,the old style 3.1 and the 3100 and I am not telling false info here.The old style 3.1 was put in the cavalier.The Northstar is a piece of junk anyway,known for headgaskets and pulls the threads out of the block when this happens.
