Thanks in advance
This question really has my gears grinding.... considering that a 1994 camaro’s (with a 3.4 L V6) body and interior is basically plastic and structure... it is very light... now a 3.8 L V6 overall is a wide and heavy engine not to mention putting it inside a heavy car.. like a Buick Regal... if u ask me I think it would smoke a 3.8 L... considering that the Camaro is extremely aerodynamic and light and has amazing torque...

Keep an eye on the dates.of posts.

Stock the early 3800 is about 1 second faster in the 1/4 mile. While there is only 20 hp difference the torque of the 3800 comes in earlier. This is well documented.
