Lightbulb Old Car, New Possibilities

Im looking for suggestions about my 94 v6 camaro, The stock engine has over 150k miles on it and although it still runs strong, the reliability factor is weighing in. I love the early fourth gen. body style and i really do not want to sell this car for the fact that i will not get any money for it up here in PA. Im lookin to save a get a new engine but i really have no idea wat to get... any ideas would be great!!!

Maybe save for a rebuild with cam and headers. I'm close to your mileage, and the only reason I'm not cammed is because I don't have the money.

5k? Check out http://www.supersixmotorsports.com/

They have a good 3.4 package. Then Headers, Cam, Gears.

What kind of numbers is that 3.4 package supposed to make? Another thought, 5K can easily net you a used LT1 drivetrain in good condition and you will still have plenty of money left over from that 5K.

Even better idea, times 1,000.

Do the LT1 swap, unless you can't afford the insurance. Otherwise...
