What vehicles Engines are compatibile for 2000 Chevy venture 3.4?

The 2000 Chevy Venture with the 3.4L engine used a specific generation of the GM 3400 V6. While it's *technically* possible some other GM 3400 engines might *fit* physically, compatibility is far from guaranteed. Significant differences in sensors, wiring harnesses, and even internal components can prevent a successful swap.

You're highly discouraged from trying to use an engine from a different year, model, or even slightly different trim level of the 3.4L without extensive research and likely custom fabrication. The risk of issues far outweighs any potential benefit.

Your best bet for a replacement engine is a used or remanufactured 3.4L V6 from a similar year Chevy Venture, Oldsmobile Silhouette, Pontiac Montana, or even a Buick Regal/Century (though the last two are less ideal). These engines have the highest chance of being a direct bolt-in replacement with minimal modification, if any.

Before purchasing any used engine, verify the engine code (often stamped on a block surface) to ensure it's a suitable match. A reputable parts supplier can help you find a compatible engine.
