DOHC? or LQ1?

[RednBlack]

LQ1 is very unique. Get's my vote. Or, you could call it....The "X".

Less than 12% had one. Overall. Mine is 6%. Stantman has 2, Ragtop Cutty LQ1s. That is in the lower 1.50 range!

Twin Dual Cam

[RednBlack]

What is odd, the only place LQ1 is mentioned on my car, is on the upper radiator hose.

[Lyle's GTP]

Well, honestly I like LQ1. Because it is simple and you guys all know what I'm talking about. But if I say 3.4 DOHC or Twin Dual Cam to anyone else, it doesn't seem to matter either way. Because nobody I talk to know's shit about engines, never mind GM V6's. Maybe if I throw out 3100 or 3.1 or 3.8 they may have a sniff, but in regards to my engine, not a clue.

These seem to be very rare around here. Maybe because they are ultra reliable, or maybe because everyone is scared of them, because of a bullshit negitive rap they seem to have.

Sorry about the mini-rant.

Appears several prefer LQ1. (Cept that German guy) So,... what does it stand for? Anything? I could surmise the "Q" being quad... And Oldskools' is evil! Has flames you can't see.

[DrRodey]

(LQ1)So,... what does it stand for?

Correct me if i'm wrong but isn't it the RPO code for the engine?

[RednBlack]

I think you are right. (What's an RPO code?)

[birdman]

RPO codes are the codes for everything your car came with from the factory and they can be found on the spare tire cover. there is a list of them on w-body.com and you can cross reference them to find out what your car came with. for example FE1, FE2, and FE3 are the suspension codes for most w-bodys.
