GM PART # 12363230
CATEGORY: All
PACK QTY: 1 CORE CHARGE: $0.00
GM LIST: $2,535.72
OUR PRICE: $1,775.00
DESCRIPTION: 3.4L ENGINE

HT 3.4
160 Horse Power

Tired of that tired 2.8 V-6 in your S-truck ? It's time for a major upgrade, GM Performance Parts style. The HT 3.4 is a bolt in replacement for the 2.8 V6 in your 1982 - 1985 pickup or Blazer. And it's emission legal in 49 states (Yes, you guessed it, California said no.) But for the rest of us, the HT 3.4 is the best thing going. With 160 horsepower and 194 Ft. Lbs. of torque your truck will feel better than new, and tow better than ever. The heads have large 1.72" intake and 1.42" exhaust valves and combustion chambers that yield a healthy 9 to 1 compression ratio. The camshaft is a high lift, short duration design, developed to produce lots of strong low end torque and mid range horsepower. With .427" intake and .454" exhaust lift, the cam ensures a strong pull to 5000 RPM. Doesn't sound like your 2.8 V6 at all, does it? It isn't, when GM Performance Parts develops an engine we focus on making power. But not power for the sake of power, but power where you need it. For great drivability, towing performance and maybe even a little off road fun. The HT 3.4L, a serious upgrade for your favorite little truck. With 40 more horsepower than your 2.8 V6, why would you even consider rebuilding that old 2.8? The induction system, ignition system, exhaust, emission controls, water pump and other parts required to bolt in your new HT 3.4 are already on your truck. Sounds like a weekend project.

you mis-typed the p/n

I don't know (starting to drool)

NICE FIND

we have a 3400, not a 3.4, 3.4 was the camaro engine........

you can stop drooling now lol

So How do you figure I mis-typed the PN

N/M i see what you did now...you cross refrenced the engine's p/n.

if you just type in 12363220 in the search box the camshaft comes up...but I'm starting to think this isnt for our cars...but I'm still holding hope!

just like turbo said this isnt for our cars. this is for the 3.4, we have the 3400. same size, diff engine.

damn! oh well....like I said, "it sounds too good to be true...which means it probably is"....that sucks. My friend just got a cam for his GTP and it sounds AMAZING..wow I want one so bad! And he runs mid-low 13's all day long

so buy a gtp

There are cams now available for our engine.

Cammotion has them and can make them to your specs. This is not a regrind.

If you want to buy one with preset specs try

Personally I wait maybe a month if you really want one. Let others be the guinie pigs.

Probably easier just to read the last couple pages of those threads.

wel lthen how come it says it works with the 2.8 and the 3.1......?

correct me if im wrong but isnt the 3.1 the upgraded 2.8 and the 3.4 (ours) the upgraded 3.1

He's just sayin that 3.4L does not equal 3400. Two different engines, alero's have the 3400

ok, how about this one:

14031378 High Output Camshaft
This flat tappet hydraulic cam is used in high-performance X-11 and fuel-injected V6/60º engines. It has .394" intake lift and .410" exhaust lift. The intake duration is 2760 at the lash point and 1960 at .050" from the base circle. The exhaust duration is 2930 at the lash point and 2030 at .050" from the base circle.

Sounds like a smokin cam if it works.

i thought we had roller tappets?

stock cam part #'s are....

24505674 1999
24507450 2000-2002
12567117 2003-2004


and on the gmpartsdirect performance section...

24505674 Camshaft "Roller Lifter Design"
This Gen III Roller lifter design camshaft features 6000 rpm operation (spring installed at 1.66") with a power peak at 5200 rpm. It features a cast iron distributor drive gear for improved durability.



basically, its a stock cam


ive bought it and used it on my old 3100.

there are no other cams from GM besides stock ones.

All the other cams listed don't have the reluctor for the camshaft position sensor so they won't work.
