More Power From A 3.1lt?

[DigitalBee]

Anyone have any ideas on how to push more power out of a 3.1lt V6? I want to squeeze everything I possibly can out of it!

You can stroke it to a 3.4l

Stroke it? Could you please explain? How much would this cost, and what kind of work is involved?

Thanks...

Why don't you come visit us at 3rd Gen. Section and see what kind of respond you'll get.

hey there peeps. - no one HAS to visit any section, the whole board is designed to give advice, the 3.1L shares design with the 2.8/3.4, so lots of people on the board will be able to help him [img]smile.gif[/img]

note: you cant stroke a 3.1L to 3.4L -- a 3.1L is a stroked 2.8L. (a 3.4 is a bored and stroked 2.8L (or a bored 3.1))

you COULD go to A.R.E and get the engine bored out to 3.4L -- but that would be risking it. you have three options:

1)build the crap outta the 3.4 motor, heads (from the 3.4)/cam/headers/exhaust, etc etc..

2)buy a 3.4L and toss it into your car.

3)have A.R.E bore your motor out to 3.4L. i dont reccomend this, cause the actual 3.4L block is slightly larger w/larger cylinders than a 2.8/3.1, hence the reason it can be bored up to .060 over the 3.4L displacement (204ci -> 211ci)

its all up to you.

have fun whatever you decide
