Guest Anonymous Posted October 30, 2002 Report Share Posted October 30, 2002 Will a 3.1 out of a '90 Lumina work in a '94 Cutlass that had the 3100? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeorge Posted October 30, 2002 Report Share Posted October 30, 2002 Yes and no....you might want to keep the top end off the 3100 and put it on a 3.1 Block you cant just swap them as far as i know.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GnatGoSplat Posted October 30, 2002 Report Share Posted October 30, 2002 You can't use the 3.1 block unless you also use the 3.1 wiring. The 3.1 block doesn't have the hole for the camshaft position sensor so the SFI wouldn't work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Anonymous Posted October 30, 2002 Report Share Posted October 30, 2002 So your saying I'll need the computer and engine bay wiring harnass? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GnatGoSplat Posted October 30, 2002 Report Share Posted October 30, 2002 Yes, and out of a '93, because that's the only year the 3.1L was mated to the 4T60-E... unless you plan to change the tranny too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Anonymous Posted October 30, 2002 Report Share Posted October 30, 2002 SHIT!!!! That figures. The tranny is going out of the Lumina but the motor is strong as hell. My uncle called me from New York and asked if I knew anyone that needed a good motor for $300. That includes the rest of the car which is in very good shape. I told him I might want the motor. He said for me it was free. Why am I having such shitty luck lately? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian P Posted October 30, 2002 Report Share Posted October 30, 2002 I thought the 3100 PCM will still work without a camshaft signal. It uses the crank position sensor to "back it up" so I've heard. Where's Ben? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeorge Posted October 30, 2002 Report Share Posted October 30, 2002 I know where there is a 93 lumina 3.1 with a good tranny I can see about getting parts for you if you want.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
