eric im not sure what you're getting at but what doug said is and i think it's safe to say it's what he would do for you if you requested is...he can use a J32A block to make the same 3.5...he likes to use the j35a he says because they are thicker sleeved clynder walls

There may be economic issues -- I don't know.

It wasn't for me. A buddy asked about the 3.5L after I mentioned it and he asked if it was "invisible." I relayed the request as shown.

I don't know if there is any "confusion", but I believe there would be more $$$ for a 3.2L labeled block as opposed to just getting the factory "short block" with correct crank already in it. With a 3.2L, you have to "borrow" a 3.5L crank and other "goodies".

I would not want to think about grinding and treating a 3.2L crank when a 3.5L is good to go and already sorted out.

I would go with the thicker sleeves, but that's me...

The only sure way to know is to ask again. And, the response generally takes a few days to a week…
