All "SS"s were 3.8
LS's were 3.4, that may be the lie right there.
He sold you an LS with SS badges? have pics for us to look at?

If it has the 3.4, then its an LS. All of the SS from 2000-2005 came with the 3.8. Have you thought about getting a CarFax on it?

Jamao is right. Sounds like they took an LS and re-badged it into an SS and charged you SS money.
