93 3.4 to 3.8 Upgrade

I have an oppurtunity to get a hold of a 3.8 liter that came out of a 95 Bonneville. I was curious of it would be possible to drop this in my 93. I know the Bonneville were front wheel drive, I don't think that this should matter. I know that the 95 Camaros had some 3.4 and some 3.8 liters. Being that the 93-95 cars are pretty much identical I don't foresee this as a big issue. Anyways anybody out there with any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated.

Not gonna work w/out some major work. The FWD intake manifolds were different. Plus you'd need to get a new transmission as well to put the 3.8 in your car. The input shafts are different from what I've seen. It'd just be a big waste of your time. Just mod the 3.4. They can be potent little motors with the right work.

Thanks, that is all I needed to hear.

Any suggestions on 3.4 mods?

Well, start off with an intake and exhaust. I have a K&N FIPK and Flo-Pro 2.5" cat-back. If you go to my website (it's not 100% complete yet, but close enough) http://www.fbodytrader.com/stockv6cam/ you can look up all the mods I've done so far.
