Yeah, me too. After I read "229" I had to go on the web and research it. :p
Normally I'm all about the 80's SS's, but I really like this car.

From what I gather the 229 V6 is the 3.8 more or less.

My g/f Debbie's '81 LC Monte has a 229 in it. And .............. she HATES it. Cause she was used to driving a 1976 Olds Cutlass with a 350 under the hood that would smoke the back tires is why.
