Our typical sources are going to make out like bandits. PFYC, ZZP, Intense, DP, PPF, etc.
Chevy owners are lucky there'* so much out there already.

Dont forget the LeSabre, Bonnie, and Park Avanue (and whatever else is a C body) the 3800 comes in alot of GMs cars either in N/A form or Super Charged form. The Grand Prix got the series 3 wile every thing else got the series 2... I think thats saying somthing about the future of the engine overal.
Its simply a good engine.. Cheap to make, but it can last freakin forever. And it gets fairly decent miles per gallon. The firebird and camaro even had it in the V6 models for a wile...

With the debut of the 3800 Series III, I doubt GM has any plans to kill it any time soon. It goes into too many cars.

I'd say Jimbo'* engine is the 3800'* bigger sister.

You mean a multivalve V6 comparable to the 3800?

GM does have the 3.9 coming out, well have to see what that has on it. I bet the Bonnie will die before the 3800. Its being used in so many GM cars. Its been proven to be a reliable, powerful and long lasting engine.
