Are the Transmissoins in a v-6 94 Auto Camaro the same as the Third Gen V-8 Transmmissions??? I,m in the understanding that the Bellhousing's wont match up. A friend of mine is saying there the same housing. I told him he was on crack. prove me right.

The 4.3 used the same bell as the v-8 stuff. It is a moot point anyhow. The 94 trans is an electronic version of the 700 (4l60). It will not work in a third gen without a computer to run it.

Sorry. I read the post wrong. I thought it said 4.3. You typed 3.4. Disregard my answer.

The '94 3.4L engine is a 60 degree engine, same as the '90-'92 f-body V6. With that a SBC V8 700R4 will not bolt up to it.
The only item on the 700R4 transmission that is electrically controlled is the TCC. Don't have to have an ECM to control it. Vacuum switch works.
