    Default engine in a vr

    hey

    was just on the phone to the wreckers and was asking for a wrecked vr to use as a donor car for my vk (with an ecotec) and they told me that the vr never had an ecotec when some people have told me that the vr does have ecotec??

    thanks

    VR had a 3800 buick engine, only the VS's had an ecotec.
    The hall of fame:

    You have an Ecotec VK? Or are you planning to drop the Ecotec into your VK? That would be cool, keep us posted!
