    I can attest to the fact they fail (mine locked up solid)

    Stands to reason. Nothing is perfect.

    And, the oldest 3800s I'm used to dealing with were the 2000 year model (when the Impala was reintroduced), so I figured they had to fail at one time or another. I just had no examples to cite.
    2004 Impala LS - got some mods sold!!!
    2009 Subaru Impreza WRX STI

    NAIOA moderator Still Imp'n, just in a different Imp.
