^^ what Steve said

the 2.3 and 2.6's are strait 6's
the 3.5's are V8's


my mum to drive one of those exactly like that same colour, same engine, same trim - it was the family car back when I was about 8 years old :lol:

Yup. I'm afraid it's missing the only thing that can make an SD1 (in my eyes) a nice car!!! The noise

Ah... But it does contain a LT77 gearbox.
You would need to change to the V8 bell housing though.
