There was no Riviera in 1994. No Buick ever had a 3.4 except the Rendezvous. What engine are you referring to?

If it's a 3.1, then it could. go over to firebirdv6.com & doa search for Russel. HE did a 3X00 conversion on his 3.4 engine.

IF it is the 3800 from 94, it's a Series II motor. Any head from any other non SC 3800 Series II will fit. The SC engines have the injectors placed differently for clearance.

Series 2 didn't start until 95 or 96 I believe.

ANY 60*
REAR WHEEL DRIVE engine
cylinder head will fit your current engine.
That includes the 3.1 cylinder head option offered ya.
And the 3.1 head will also fit the 3.4 engine.
YET the 3.4 head had more meat around valve spring pockets to handle the larger factory installed valve springs.
Buy your offered option with confidence!
