hey fellas. now dont get me wrong in anything i say here. i have the dreaded 3.4 DOHC 95 monte carlo. its pushing 118 thousand miles on it and i enjoy beatin the snot out of it. the one and only problem ive had with it is about two weeks after i bought the head gasket blew. we put it on the rack in my garage and tore the engine apart all the way to the gasket to replace it. it was out for about a week but we pulled it off. i wouldnt completely forget this car. again i trust the guys on here so dont go rushing to buy it. cya
