This is killing me, I REALLY would've loved to have fabricated a turbo kit and have some ARP head studs and MLS head gaskets for my 89 Beretta with a 2.8 because that's what killed it, head gaskets. It had ALOT of EGR issues as well. I would've seriously loved to have either swapped in an upgraded L67 with a 5 speed swap, or even just turbocharge the 2.8 with supporting mods and do a 5 speed swap to it. Those older 2.8s and 3.1s had good torque down low, but they didn't really last until the 3100 SFI came out. I had a 95 Corsica with 355k miles on it on the original engine and trans that I got for free with fusible link issues for the alternator.

Better air filter to start, and better exhaust 2.25"-2.5" from the manifolds back along with a high flow muffler. When I did my intake plenum I ported in as far as I could reach with the tools I had. Then I cleaned up/gasket matched the outlets from the plenum. Another thing you can do is polyurethane fill your engine mounts like I did in another video. In my old cavalier I made a solid rear engine mount from a block of aluminum, it helped putting the power to the tires!

Not directly, you would need an adapter plate. I used one on my truck with the original 4l60e but I went to a Camaro 4l60e with the 60degreev6 pattern because I cracked 3 flex plates

What about the rwd models?

The Iron heads/intakes are the biggest restriction on the RWD 2.8, 3.1 and 3.4's. Headers are a good improvement for them along with a larger throttle body, aftermarket cam and porting the heads. If you're looking for the most power you will want to swap on 3400 aluminium heads/intakes!

Yes you can! They usually list valve springs that are needed if it's much larger than stock. Also in most cases you will get best results having the computer chip tuned for the upgrades!

3400 TB is completely different. Only thing that can be done is have a stock one bored out, or adapt a TB from something else but more is involved with that.

I know right my 87 z24 came with a 2.8 I bought used in 89 I’m expecting it to blow up any year now.

The old 2.8s would take a beating! I money shifted my 89RS one time, and it survived the 8000rpm, but the transmission didn't 😆

Or you could tow it with a F-150 and it would be much faster!

At least you would have something reliable to drive when the Ford breaks down!
