    Are you going to take it to the track? Seems if you're going to add an engine you would want to go to an 8. But then again, is there room for a bigger engine in your Alero? I understand the 3800 Chevy engine is very highly regarded-more so than the 3400, but, the 3400 is no dog, either. I would say, if you can get to a drag strip, talk to some of the successful drivers there who know about modifying engines or swapping in new ones and see where they direct you. I have seen a Maverick whip Corvettes and Porches by pulling a 9.5 qtr mile at 134+ mph. Unless I miss my guess, the engine in that Maverick is not stock. That's the kind of guy you want to talk to. :shades:

    I'm quite certain that Eaton makes a supercharger that can be installed on the 3.4L engine. Probably the simplest way to increase engine power.

    Could someone help me with this? When I install my 454, will I need to change out my air conditioning box to a after market system? Also, will I need to move my power stiring pump to allow my headers to pass by without touching? It's going in a 88 Monte SS. Any feedback would be greatly apprciated! Thanks.

    Can I use a 93' Regal engine to swap with my 91' PAU? Will it be an easy swap or do I have to alter some things?
