well if its a 91 and a v6 it is a 3.1 because i believe thats the only V6 they put in the 90-92 model camaros.

look on the intake manifold, in case you dont know what it looks like , its the first thing you see when you pop the hood and looks sort of like an X. it should say Multi-Port Fuel Injection which is TPI

TPI : tuned port injection which means each cylinder has its own fuel injector
TBI: throttle body injection , when you pop of the air filter top youl see to injectors
carb: pretty self explanitory
