    The 3100 engine was a great engine. The Chevrolet Lumina had a 3100 160hp which was good for the 1990's. 3.1 L/3100 L82 The L82 ("M-code") was an updated, SFI replacement for the MPFI LH0, produced from 1993 through 1999. It featured a structural oil pan, a stiffer redesigned engine block, sequential fuel injection, and revised aluminum heads. Output for the L82 was up 20 hp (15 kW), over the previous Gen II LH0, to 160 hp (119 kW) at 5200 rpm and 185 lb⋅ft (251 N⋅m) at 4000 rpm. Compression ratio for the L82 was 9.5:1 and the bore measured 89 mm (3.5 in), while the stroke was 84 mm (3.31 in) giving it a displacement of 3.1 L; 191.3 cu in (3,135 cc). Applications: 1994-1999 Buick Century 1994-1996 Buick Regal 1994-1998 Buick Skylark 1994-1996 Chevrolet Beretta 1994-1996 Chevrolet Corsica 1995-1999 Chevrolet Lumina 1997-1999 Chevrolet Malibu 1995-1999 Chevrolet Monte Carlo 1994-1998 Oldsmobile Achieva 1997-1999 Oldsmobile Cutlass GLS 1994-1996 Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera 1993-1997 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme (1993 received both LH0 and L82 3.1 L (3,135 cc) motors) 1994-1998 Pontiac Grand Am 1994-1999 Pontiac Grand Prix I bet when it was parked it already had a blown head gasket-gaskets.

Buying spare parts out of the local car paper I found a guy who was actually building one and I was jealous! I never thought of making it out of wood though lol. That fiero would overheat like crazy, couldn't imagine this setup. I think back then I priced out all the parts for a kit conversion and it was about 50 grand, crazy.

    Hey there brother! I love these videos, the ingenuity and skill that you use to bring these cars back to life is honestly astounding! your videos have inspired me to finally work on my late grandfathers 1953 studebaker champion. im not sure if this is typically a thing you do but as a person with little automotive expedience outside routine maintenance would you ever consider a video or a series documenting some of the best ways to diagnose issues and determine their fixability on these old cars? id love to see something like that

    The best part of a VGG video is that, even in failure, Derek does his best to get these cars home. He's succeeded so many times that you don't feel too bad if the car doesn't make the entire trip. Merry Christmas to Derek, Jessica, and the entire VGG family, and I hope to see this car again, because I dreamed of owning a Countach too - maybe not a wooden one, though.

    I had the head gasket thought ealier on when you pressed down on the radiator cap and the hissing got quieter. Was thinking that's not right, thats a lot of air pressure built up in a fluid zone. Throw a match on it and start from scratch. Step 1, Don't use something sooo prone to moisture absorption as MDF. That stuff wicks up every drop of moisure and swells sooo bad.

Its a vacuum for the valve covers and something else that i forget because i weld that hole shut along with the egr port. They are amazing engines as long at the fueling is correct and it has good intake gaskets. Ive overheated mine a couple times and its still doing well.
