Re: [Gmecm] 60° V6 Cam

[David Allen]

  So Chris; if I get a 1996 or newer 3400 engine, it will have a roller cam.  
  How much remodification will be needed to attach the motor mounts from my existing 1985 FWD 2.8 MPFI to this block?  I have read and gathered it will be a bolt-in swap.
  Will the timing chain cover interchange?
  I can deal with the engine management aspect of it.
Thanks!
David
