Yeah I reckon GXP isn't that specific about what hot rod parts are added.
Sometimes I think if a motor goes on one of the minivans I'll grab a sweet deceased grandma Regal out of Sun City and put the 3800 in the minivan. I doubt I'd want to do all that work in reality, though.

If I was going to swap an engine into a 3.4 equipped GM mini van I would consider a 3.9 from a Monte Carlo or Impala. Same 60 degree block as the 3.4. I was impressed by the feel of the 3.9s I drove.

I’m in love with the new Miata. Cherry red. I guess I could mount my bike to the front.

Stinking hot today. Spent the morning vanishing boat wood, then hit the nurseries trying to find some plants. Sweating like there's no tomorrow.

Supposed to be 92 here tomorrow and 107 by next Tuesday. Some friends are driving to the coast 60 miles north of here and riding 80 miles. I don't think I'll go.
