95oldsVan Posted April 8, 2006 Report Share Posted April 8, 2006 We bought a 97 four door grand prix with base engine 3100 V6 and I was just wondering what the basic HP and Tq numbers are for this year/engine/ model.Wish it was a SC 3800 but this was a family members car and we are getting it for a super deal...so we take what we cant get right now...Also,what are the most common ailments or problems to check and fix on these cars as they age...(im betting intake manifold gaskets is up there)...thanks for any info!

ToroToro Posted April 8, 2006 Report Share Posted April 8, 2006 160 hp, 185 tq... Just like all the pre-2000 3100s. And yes, manifold gaskets are up there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
95oldsVan Posted April 8, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2006 Thanks...most GM engines Ive seen are fairly easy to work on so shouldnt have any issues fixing the little gaskets and bugs out.Hope this will be a good DD car for us to get around and use for work and etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
