no thats for a 80k mile motor and hd tranny

 

for the 4600 id be surprised if you couldnt find a whole gtp with decent mileage. at that kind of money your probably better off finding a whole different car. seems like a shame to throw all that money at your car and it get blown away by a pulleyd l67.

 

Very true, plenty of modded gtp going for that much.
all we're saying is keep your options open, it can save you some cents for better performance.
Which ever you decide to do, good luck buds.

 

Check out this 3400, its just sick!!!

I'd love to know how much coin he dropped in it.

 

yea i got you
i cant seem to find a gtp modded :/

but like the reason i wanna do it to the 3.4 is because i just got into drag racing and i m runing 15.9's which is not bad so i think i have a good motor,and not alot of people would do anything to a ls,i really dont need a lot of power just some that will throw me back in to the seat on the green and to beat my coworkers civic hatch lol

 

Why would you want one already modded?
They are usually around though, and sometimes cheap since most people don't want a pre-modded car.

 

they said look into it so i did but couldnt find anything XD,i think i might just stick with the 3.4l and mod that,no one really does and i wanna be one of those few that have it done

 

Maybe it's because I got burned with the 3.4l in my previous car. But I would not put that kind of money into building up a 3.4. Simply because the 1999+ 3.4 engines are not reliable. They have known issues that even GM acknowledged in the form of technical service bulletins for their service techs. Plus, you would be starting with the smallest engine put into the Monte.

I'd suggest going with the N/A 3.8. You'd be starting with a more reliable engine with more power. Then turbo charge from there. Besides, there's tons more stuff available for the 3.8.

 

I agree comletely. These engines are not solid at all. Lets not even get on the topic of our transmissions. Go for the proven engine put the money in the right place. If you wanna save some upfront money just swap a L36 in there and be done. You can later on do a to swap and be FI'ed. When I started building my engine that is still not finished because of my purchase of a Camaro, I decided that the L67 was the right direction for me to start off at.

Just think all those mods that your planning on doing should put you in the same range as a stock L67/L32. Either way good luck with whatever direction you decide to go in.

 

The only real reason to do a 3.4 is to be different.
