really?? i didn't know this! sorry. i assumed that they ran the same bellhousing as the 4.3... not the first time i've been wrong!

 

yea, alot of people don't know that, also caddy 4.1,4.5,and 4.9 v8s use the 60* pattern,and all the northstars incarnations are 60* pattern(one bolt is off)
and the 5.3 v8 in next years monte/impala/gran prix uses the 60* pattern

 

i have a 2 camaros i have a 94 with the 3.4 the lower intake gasket went out and i hate workin on the 3.4. i have a 96 3.8 camaro. and i have a 2nd 3.8 computer, wires, and all belt accy. and i can get a 3.8l motor for $250.

i wanna know if the 3.8l motor will bolt up to the tranny(auto) in the 94?
will the motor mounts on the frame(94) line up for the 3.8l?
is the 3.4l a 60* motor or a 90*?
is the 3.8l a 60* motor or a 90*?
and anything else that would need to bee changed

 

re-read the first few posts in this thread. I think that'll answer you questions about the tranny bolting up. 3.4 is a 60* motor and 3.8 is a 90*.

 

so i can use the 94 tranny, cuz they have the same bolt pattern. then cant i just use the 3.8 motor mounts and it will fit or will i need to use the 3.8 k member?
