Will a 03 grand Am engine fit in a 01 Grand Am

First Engine I purchased Seller tried ripping me on shipping so I bailed.

From what i understand any GM 3400 01 and up from any model of car will fit the 01 Grand Am GT correct

I need a engine fast

[bszopi]

Yes.

Check to make sure the A/C compressor bolts up. if not you'll need to swap oil pans then you'll be golden. I forget which year they changed the bolt boss for the A/C compressor on the pan.

I was looking at the motor on a 2000 Grand Am and noticed a thin metal pipe coming out of the cylinder head by eack spark plug. Each one joined to one pipe that was going across the front of the head. I don't no what it was, nor do I remember where it went to as I didn't think much of it at the time, but I noticed I didn't have it on my 2003 and the heads don't have the holes for it. I have no idea what it is or if it applies to your 2001. I just thought I'd mention it.

It's direct NAWZZZZZZZZZ INJECTION!!! ....
j/k It's AIR. California motors have that.

from what ive heard all 2000 motors came with the air setup on them.
every year 2000 car ive seen has that crap on it.
find a motor without it if you can.

thanks guys Im looking at a 05 Grand Am 3400 for $925 Shipping and all with less tan 50K miles

[bszopi]

Wow, that seems expensive for a newer motor with that high of miles. I know engine prices have gone up recently, but I remember I picked up my 3400 which was a year old and had ~20k on it for $350. I have heard of other getting engines with less than 10k on them for under $500.

[IsaacHayes]

yeah, that's $$$$$ too much.

Did you check www.car-part.com ?
