Milzy Motorsports - American Muscle, Reborn they have mods for the 3100
They say-This 56mm 3400 throttle body will replace your 3100's 52mm unit. Installation is pretty straight forward, but may require transfer of parts from your current throttle body depending on the year and model of your vehicle.

It don't say anything about the PCM having problems so it seems to me that it would work fine to me. Its only 4mm's but it should increase air flow by about 17 percent.
