I'm starting my 3.4 engine swap and was wondering what you had to swap around in the engine bay. Any charcoal canisters etc. I know you have to move the battery tray, but what else did you have to move around? I have read through your swap and it is one of the most detailed of them all. Cause of your thread it has persuaded me to do mine. Thanks

I've covered most of what is required in this thread, but I ended up reusing the original 3.0 charcoal canister so that wasn't relocated. The intake moves but that's straightforward since the 3.4 runs everything out the PS and you just have to follow it's lead.
Best of luck... it's more than worth the effort.

AWESOME THREAD!! Just spent an hour rereading it for the third time.
Curious if you ever got the ac installed and working and if you did a write up on that. If not, any advice, tips, concerns that we should be on the lookout for?
Awesome job!
