Re: 96 Lumina 3.4L engine

The '96 Impala SS had a 5.7 liter LT1 V8 (260 hp)
in a rear wheel drive configuration. Not even close.

But that 3.4 DOHC V6 is 210 hp, I think, and a real PITA to work on, and finicky about timely maintenance. Broken timing belts resulting in valve/piston damage were most common neglect failures.
