any one have any info on swapping one of these into a yota?
My friend is getting rid of his s15 with a swapped in 3.4 out of a firebird thats nicely set up and he's willing to give it to me along with the rest of what i need from the truck.
I ve got a choice, rebuild my 22re or fit in the 3.4. the engine runs great, and its free, my 22re needs a full rebuild.
not much info on a GM 3.4 swap floating around, I haven't found any.

 

search for the GM 4.3. It will give you more results. There have been a few on here to do the GM swap but the Toyota 3.4 is more popular here. Good luck and welcome to YT!

 

the gm 3.4 is prone to intake manifold gasket failure. Also the hydrolic lifters go bad. But thats mainly to lack of proper service. I'd stick to a toyota 3.4 or go gm 4.3

 

+1 vital! they also love head gaskets more then myy 3vze ( friend had a 3.4 in a fireturd, car and motor now in the parking lot in the sky)

 

Are you talking about the 3400 DOHC or the 3.4 OHV. If you are talking about the DOHC, they are OK motors. I am actually in the process of a L67 (Series II 3800 SC) swap. All of the GM 60 degree v6 and 3800 series II and III used the same bell pattern. A 96 to 02 Dodge dakota 4 cyl bellhousing will mate your motor to a toyota R15X transmission. The wiring is a BIZNITCH. The starter on the dodge bell is on the passenger side, make sure your block has mounting provisions for a starter on the passenger side.

 

i agree way better motor! and plenty in the salvage yards! plus the 90 degree 4.3L has way more torque than the 60 degree 3.4L. mike

 

It is also a larger motor and gets less fuel mileage. the twin cam 3400 is actually a decnt motor. The 3.4 however is a great boat anchor.... When you wanna move, just cut the rope.
