I have a 90GT 3.1 in a search I found a 3.1 Goodwrench engine for$999.00 it can be found at www.crateenginedepot.com item#12522927 that is for 91 to 94 years, don't know if any changes had been made for 91 vs 90.

Nothing too significant I think. But if you're about to put an engine in, why not up to a 3400? You could pick one up and rebuild it yourself for about a grand. Or, if you want a 3100, I got one already stripped and cleaned that needs new rod bearings...

Thanks for the offer, right now everthing is still in the air. I hate to give up on this engine, I've put alot of money in it just to get it to run the way it does now. Rebuild or 3400 it's too soon to make any solid plans.

Morning everyone. My son has a '94 Z26 3.1........ I was wondering if someone could give me some info?  Low oil level light is on, but oil level is fine.  The oil pressure is to the max on the dash.  Replaced the oil pressure sensor already.  Gonna replace the one in the oil pan next.  Any ideas?  Thanks in advance. ~Kimber~

What oil are you running? You must use 5w30.

Ok, just checking. I have heard of people that have run different weights and had trouble.

The sensor on the bottom of the oil pan is the level sensor.  Check the wires going to it also.
