97 Grand AM 3100

[cjvolcom]

Hello Everyone and thanks in advance.

So I have a 97 Grand Am with a 3100 in it, the cam is sheard and there maybe other problems with bent valves (I don't know because I have not started tearing it down yet). My origonal plan was to grab a cam from a salvage yard and rebuild the engine. But after reading around I think the better bet would be to get a low-milage 3400 and bolt it in there. Would that be the better chose?

And I know these some of this is already else were on the site but I want to clarify before I buy anything. Would the 3100 to 3400 be a direct swap and bolt right in? Will it work with my stock tranny and A/C? Would it be plug-in-play per se? or would I have to make modifications to my car or the 3400 to get it to work? and if so, what would I have to do?

Thanks again guys.

Download the guide. That should help answer all of your questions about the swap. That site is about ready to get a make-over, with much more information added, but for now, the guide will help you get an idea of what to do.

the link to the guide (http://www.3400swap.com/guide_2_5_6.pdf) seems to be broken. Is there a mirror? or do you have a copy you could upload?

Its not the latest version, but should work for a breif overview. I'll see if I can't get the link to the latest working...
