3.5 Swap Questions

I have been reading for days about all the swaps
The questions I have are
I see some people used the 3.0 timing.
Why change the timing stuff over?

I have a 95 se AT could I still keep the AT without doing major mods...Or would it be best just to buy the 3.5 with the 6spd and ecu ?

And how much nitrous can it handle vs the 3.0

I did find out I will have to buy the TB adapter from another org member

People use the VQ30 timing chain setup as it has the cam position sensor on the intake cam gears.

You can use a 6 speed and ecu but search a full 3.5 swap and you'll quickly find out why most people go the other route.

Ok so just swap the timing setup into the 3.5 along with a TB adapter from stephen and use all the 3.0 sensors and wiring I should be good ?
And make sure the o-rings stay in the oilpan

Almost EVERYONE swaps the 3.0 timing over. These are basic swap questions with which this section is rife. Please continue to read/search as it will probably answer every question you have and then some.
