Pretty crazy somehow this guy made a m62 work on a 3400

WTF, thats not far from me at all, I should go look at the SC setup

[remiljr]

wow! leave it to a cavalier to first see this setup.

[SilverGAGT2002]

Someone should really go check it out and cough up $1k for it

[geldartb]

huh never thought of using a 3500 UIM.

gives me ideas. hmm let's see i have a spare 3500 UIM and an m90 from the 3.8 tbird kicking around the garage.

i'd like to see how he ran the belt.

[DrFabulous]

Let me see if I can get MN crew together to go look at this, maybe buy it

[SilverGAGT2002]

That would be sweet! Someone should really go check it out and see how its running etc.

[DrFabulous]

Got the guy to send me engine pictures.

[SilverGAGT2002]

holy chet! This could probably be the reason for a cowl hood being made for the grand am!

Ask him exactly how much time and money he invested into this project!

[Mac0083]

i've got one of those m62 blowers, exact same thing, if anybody wants to try this.

PM me. (sawz-all blades for hood, not included)

[geldartb]

nice i have all that stuff including the throttle body.

now i just need something to weld aluminum. it's simple yet effective.

[SilverGAGT2002]

can't wait to see if someone figures out how to make this work

dude, what are you talking about? those pics show that he did figure it out.
are you talking about waiting to see this on an N-body?

i hope i never see an n-body stoop that low, UNLESS it is a dedicated track build.
i'd hate to see a kid with a g a do that to a car that sits in a college parking lot.

[SilverGAGT2002]

Yeah i meant on a n-body

[99Alero_Boy]

.....you guys are getting so excited over this, it has been done to cavalier and beretta's with 3400 swap a ton of time....the problem being with our vehicle is you would need a rediculously large hood scoop and it would look retarded.....

[geldartb]

i have full intentions on doing this but im going to make it so it's removable so if i want to drive around all normal looking i can.

theoretically it's just the S/C bolted to the flat plate welded to the UIM and pulley/belt system. so if you want to go back to normal mode all you need is a spare UIM setup and a belt.

still got my stock hood i can cut a hole in also. i wanted to see if i could fit the m90 where the ac compressor sits but i don't think there's enough room.

mines not dedicated track built and it's about as low as it's going to get. currently have H&R springs on it now. my car sits inside 99% of the time plus i have a beater to drive so. something the few people who have done the m90 on top of the UIM mod haven't done is make a scoop.

once i get this mocked up i want to try and make a scoop. i know the guy who did it to the Beretta Z26 awhile back tried to make a scoop but his stood well over 6" above the hood and killed his line of sight.

[SilverGAGT2002]

I fully support your idea on doing this and mocking up a scoop geldartb!

I fully support the idea it will look retarded with a 6" + hood scoop and only run 14s

[SilverGAGT2002]

Better than running 15s with a stock hood
