you are going to have to change those motor mount back to the 3.0 ones. Just unbolt the entire 3.0 assembly and bolt to the 3.4.

You may have to grind one of the mounts as it will hit the water drain in the block if your block has one. See my thread if for pics.

I had to reroute my fuel line. Too close to the pipe for my comfort. I think that i have pics of that too. I think that I started a new line at the filter, took it on top of the frame rather than inside, and then out and up by where the brake union is behind the front passenger wheel.

I unbolted the bracket that holds the fuel line and brake lines, bent everything slightly and its now about 3 inches away from the exhaust. I'm not worried at that distance. The exhaust is about 3/4 inch away from the firewall and the paint shows no sign of heat damage.

If you are smogging it through the REF as you are in California, then you cannot legally change the crossover to the other is side. You cannot change anything from the way the motor came from its original form.

Both these threads cover it fairly well. Cadman's probably better than mine.
