1991-1996 GTP question

Hey guys! I got a question to the GP experts about LQ1 engine. Was there a manual transmission (Getrag 284) availible on GTPs with LQ1 produced in 1991-1996 or was it all 4 speed auto ? Also what is the power output of LQ1 ?

Thanks.

The LQ1 (also called the Twin Dual Cam) was a special DOHC version of the 3.1 L LH0 V6. It was built from 1991 to 1997. 1991-1993 it used tuned multiport fuel injection, made 200-210 hp @ 5,200 rpm and 215 ft. lbs torque @ 4000 rpm. 1994-1997 it used sequential fuel injection (SFI) making 215 hp @ 5,200 rpm and 225 ft. lbs torque @ 4,000 rpm. It has four large valves per cylinder. The 3.4 L uses a cogged belt to drive the four overhead camshafts. The gearbox options for the LQ1 were a 4 speed Hydra-Matic electronic shifting transmission and a 5 speed Getrag 284 manual transmission, unique to the LQ1. Adapting a pushrod block for overhead cams was difficult, and the 60° vee angle made this a very tall engine, but power output was impressive.

Bore was increased to 92 mm, but the 3.1 L engine's 84 mm stroke was retained. There are only a few interchangeable parts between this DOHC engine and other members of the 60° family, namely the connecting rods and crankshaft.

The heads and intake manifolds were redesigned for the 1996 model year, incorporating a larger throttle body and plenum area, slightly shorter intake runners, cloverleaf combustion chambers, and larger "pill"-shaped exhaust ports. Camshafts and cam timing were also revised for the new, higher RPM powerband.

Applications:

1991-1994 Chevrolet Lumina Z34
1991-1995 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme
1991-1996 Pontiac Grand Prix
1995-1997 Chevrolet Monte Carlo Z34
1995-1997 Chevrolet Lumina LS

Thanks for response, I read the Wikipedia info too. I wanted to hear the answer from the person that has the car though.

hahaha WHATS THE DIFFERENCE MAN,THAT INFO WILL ANSWER BOTH OF YOUR QUESTIONS..WHATS IS THE POWER OUTPUT?? THERE IT IS.....DID THEY HAVE A MANUAL??? THERE IT IS..HAHAHA BUT OK IF YOU NEED SOMEONE WHO OWNS ONE TO TELL YOU THEN MY FRIEND WHO OWNS A Z34 SAYS YES THERE IS A MANUAL AND HE SAID THE SAME THING AS THE SPECS ON THE POWER.HAHAHAH MAN I REALLY DONT UNDERSTAND THAT RESPONCE BUT OK.I WILL LET SOMEONE ELSE CHIME IN.

z34s do have manual transmission. I asked about GTP, it says nothing about GTPs having manual. Manuals are unclear about GTP transmissions. I wanted a response from the owned who actually has a manual GTP with getrag 284, since I think that data is a bit biassed.

According to the info I have, the GTP only offered a manual trans from 91-93, and it was discontinued due to slow sales in 94. The Grand Prix GT was also offered with a 3.1 Turbo and a 5-speed in 91, and with a 2.8/5-speed combo in 88-89.

Does anyone anywhere know of a '91 Grand Prix Manual 5 speed trans car for sale complete?
I have a custom project in mind this would be perfect for.
