    HI ALL
    Been a long time sence I've been here...
    What I'm looking for is a FWD V6 set up that is not injected and does not have computer controls of the ignition... Old stile, some sort of the first FWD to come out.... per say...
    This is what I want to do....
    I have a 71 Corola Wagon... and I want to put a V6 FWD set up in (now get this ) the back of the wagon.. to make it rear motor and rear wheel drive (make it a wheel stander LOL ) by useing the whole front clip and mount it in the back of the wagon.... I want it to be kind of simple so no injection or computer to mess with.. an automatic is OK as I can run a cable for shifting... easer than shifting linkage for a manule.
    Thanks
    Tim

    biggest motor you can find on this forum is a 3400sfi, but its injected. you could use :
    3400 short block(except the pistons, you'l need the camaro pistons), iron heads from the 3.4 camaro, edelbrocks intake with a 390cfm 4 barrel carb, s-10 vacuum advance distributor. 5 speed from z24 would work. all our tranny's used cables, stick or not. make a set of headers, or since space probably isnt an issue, i think s&s has a set for n-bodies that run like 500 (raw)

    you'll want the 3400 sfi block because it has roller cam, and stronger main caps and rods i think. you cant use a carb on the aluminum heads unless you feel like a bit of fabricating.

      If you can try and snag an old Citation. Everything 86 and later is EFI
      1993 EXT. CAB, 3.4L V6 TBI, 5spd manual. Sonoma
      1990 4Door, 3.2L V6 TBI, 5spd manual. 4X4. Trooper

        just remembered, aluminum head exhaust pattern is bigger than iron heads, you might have to make your own headers. you might need some tall tires to convince the car to rotate up instead of the tires spinning, like some 30"+ hoosiers os something. i dont know if the fieros even get the front up off the ground that easy, and they ar 90% plastic
