Why would anybody modify any part ???? To make the car go better, of course......... :rat:

My point is, given what I said in my earlier post, it wouldn't make the car go better because it would result in uneven wear and not all cylinders could run as efficiently.

Introduced in 1995, the Series II is quite a different engine. Although the stroke for the 3.8 L engine remained at 3.4 in (86 mm), and the bore remained at 3.8 in (97 mm), the engine architecture was vastly changed. The piston connecting rods were 1 in (25 mm) shorter, so the crankshaft was redesigned. A new intake manifold improved breathing, and a new cylinder head had larger valves. The result was 205 hp (153 kW) and 230 ft.lbf (312 Nm), better fuel economy, and 26 lb (12 kg) lighter overall weight.

The 3800 Series II was on the Ward's 10 Best Engines list for 1995 through 1997.

[edit]L36
The L36 was the first Series II version of the 3800. It has a 96.52 mm bore and 86.36 mm stroke for 3.8 L (3791 cc) of displacement. Power is 205 hp (153 kW) and torque is 230 ft.lbf (312 Nm). It was first introduced in 1995.

This engine is or was used in the following vehicles:

Buick Park Avenue
Buick Le Sabre
Buick Regal
Buick Riviera
Chevrolet Camaro
Chevrolet Impala
Chevrolet Lumina LTZ
Chevrolet Monte Carlo
Pontiac Bonneville
Pontiac Firebird
Pontiac Grand Prix
Oldsmobile Delta 88
Oldsmobile Intrigue
Oldsmobile LSS
Holden Commodore

That's the funniest thing I've ever read. My VP V6 absolutely destroys any V6 VR or VS out there, and the VNs still give my VP a good run for it's money.

don't remove now I've decided I have put mine back in but. I modified similar too rattattack1313 but I opened the mouth and cut the whole thing lower and level. Idle is like normal, but throttle response is awesome. give some in a corner and womba. instant smoke. I have also die grinded the butterfly stopper on top of the throttle body to give the car 100% throttle and relocated the throttle cable mount in front of the kick down cable mount. i.e

p.s I have a VN motor transplant, soon to be putting my original VQ heads on it that are slightly :whistling modified
