    I see every possible engine in a w-body listed except the 3.1L Turbo (LG5). I don't know if anyone else on here has one, so maybe it's not that important to this site, but I just thought I'd mention it since the list is only one motor away from being complete.

    CURRENT: '00 Pontiac Grand Prix GTP (ugh...boring regular one)

    Im not sure but I guess the thinking was that those would go into the turbo section, but Im not 100% on that. There arent many of them left, though I see you got quite the collection.

    Thanks for pointing that out though. Maybe if you or anyone else you know with one signs up and starts enough traffic and posts on it we can add an engine specific area. Id have to kinda play it by ear.

    I presumed the turbo section was aimed at 3800s, or LS4s equipped with an aftermarket turbo package. I thought there wouldn't be enough traffic for a section on the LG5, but I can't imagine there being much more for the LHO and LQ1, and certainly not the L4, so I figured if those had a dedicated section, it was worth a shot to mention the LG5. Anyway, no big deal if it doesn't happen. If it does, I can certainly provide plenty of technical info for a FAQ section, or stickies.

    You do have a good point though, there isnt much traffic in those others and they have their own sections. We'll see what we can do.
