Anyone hear of the 3.4dohc having 275hp originally?

I saw something written on the internet about the 3.4dohc having 275 hp when it was first designed but was taken to 200hp by cutting the fuel delivery and spark advance curves because of tranmission warranty problems does anyone know if this was true?

yes it is true, just removing the EGR connector and deleting the cat really wakes up the '95 and up 3.4- so much so, that it will break the trans after a while, and even sooner if you drive it hard

the 3.4 was under-trannied from day 1

And on this note, the thread is closed. Remember folks, if you let the engine make 3 more hp than stock, your trans will blow up.
