After careful consideration and thinking of how to modify it to make it work, Would it be possible to modify the 3.8L Airbox and lid to work on a 3.4? The only thing I see restricting it right now is the differences in the hood. I don't know how much of a slope the 98+ hoods have compared to the 93 - 97, or if there is and difference in the slope of the hood.
Assuming there is no difference other than fitment issues due to the hood, and that you go through with the front end conversion of your car, I would see no difficulties. But that is only a blind guess.

I definitely plan on going through with it sometime this summer. This was just a random thought that I had/have been thinking about for about 2 - 3 days now. Also wondering if the ...... oh crap whats the word I want to use ......... effin A I'll say the hose? is the same size where it mounts to the engine(UIM?)
Well, as previously mentioned, I'm sure a Cold Air Intake would be a lot less hassle with equal or better results. But If you were to take the air box route, then you'll need to research and compare the differences between the 3.4 and 3.8 intakes (throttle body, MAF, UIM(?) sizes and angles). Personally, I don't know much about the intake beyond the throttle body, so I won't be able to help you out much more. Good luck though. :)

haha yeah idk much about intakes past ...... well the intake I'm probably going the CAI route now Blizzard and yourself bring up a very good point of more out of a CAI .... seeing as it would seem to be less hassle as you say, I hadnt thought of all the technicalities of it.
Ouch! Another one of my useless threads I guess lol
Hey ya learned something right? I always get random thoughts like that too but in the end most people have been there and done that. The usual standard aftermarket upgrades are probably best for a DD but don't let that stop any innovation you may happen upon. Most chances are like I said previously though, people have been there and done that.
