You will need an upper mount. Your coolant/washer tank will have to be taken out. It is possible to get a newer coolant tank, but I'm not sure that you can use the newer washer tank. Just so that you know the 2.8/3.1 have power from the low to mid and the 3100/3400/3500 have mid to high. I forgot that you have a MAF, there will need to be a way to hook it up to the intake that you have.

Or an adapter bracket to use the old style mounts.

well the junk yard is selling 3.4L out of a grand am gt for 500 bucks with the tranny on it...i might go look at it today... is it a hard change....

It will not just drop in if that's what your asking. Do a web search on a 2.8 to 3400 swap. That will give you a better idea of what you in for.

ok thnks man....

Sure, just wish I could help more. It's just that I have yet to do the swap in my car(95) and only got an overview on how to do it for an early car. I did have a 90GT at one time, but never made plans to do the swap(just looked into it).

yea im not entirely set on the swap...i might just dress her up and jus have a nice show car... i mean i do have an 11 sec neon right now...all motor single cam.. and that car is all go no show... so this one can be the show car...

What did you do to that Neon? Pics again and some guys will want to see a slip.
I got ya, polish the old 2.8 intakes and valve covers. Stuff like that. I can tell you that it's hard to find parts for these cars, just normal stuff. My tail lights are better than yours, but still have a crack in each of them(most do).

Yeah that sounds a little odd......

All motor and single cam in the 11's.... SRT4's were only running 13.9's a few years ago in stock form. I know because I beat one at the strip in my red Beretta and he didn't know what the hell hit him

i dont have slips right now... i will when the track starts runnin again up here... i will get them then... but yea just goin to polish the old turd up a bit....

Is it a first gen neon? Those gutted can be light as hell. Dont know if I'm beleiving the 11's though. Maybe high 12's or 13's

yea its a first gen.... and it is gutted with slicks...

right lane not left... just found one laying around usually i dont keep them...

That is insanly low trap for a fwd car running 11's. Guess it could be because its so light it rips out of the hole well and dosent do as much up top.

If that actually is you, way to go. Thats very impressive!

Lets see some pics of this car!

I really want to gut my car.
