    yes the 3.4 from the lumina would be compatible but you should also look into the new 3.6 - 300 hp! Would be sick in a 3.4 camaro.

    anyone else know anything about this? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/3400-...QQcmdZViewItem would that fit? i was told by the junk yard that the fwd cars motors wont fit because their drill holes are different and the motor mounts are in different spots.....

    If you are looking for an easy swap, get another RWD block.
    3.4/3500 Twin Turbo almost complete
    I have CNC machines, contact me if you need something. 3500 top ends available.
