I personally dont think its a good idea only because youre wanting to supercharge your 3400. Then after youre ready to do the supercharger youre gonna be like "what the hell'd I do that for?"

Even if you were to supercharge it, it would be a good idea to do a 3500 swap (or top swap). There's more airflow to be had with the 3500.

Possibly morad. I dont know if they would have anything for the 3500, but you could wither check out their website or they have a store on ebay. Its pretty much a junk yard, but its indoors.
