My 3.4 (build detailed on this forum) was indeed expensive.

There are pros and cons for everything.

Before my own 3.4, I ran a 3.2 with 964 cams, SSI's and a SW chip. Nice motor, but not in the same league as what I built now.

The thing I like best about the motor is the throttle response offered by the ITB's, just like an early MFI motor.

To me a 3.6 in an earlier chassis is a good combo, I have driven a few. But, they just feel like the same thing only with more power. If that is what you are after, then it is a good way to go. I wanted more "character" in my motor.

A used 3.6 of unknown history may turn out to be a good purchase, but what if it needs a rebuild soon too?

Cheers
