From this website (http://members2.easyspace.com/hotholdens/tech/v6hi st.html):
"The venerable Buick 3.8 V6 has had a long and fairly illustrious career, powering many Buicks, and other GM vehicles over the past 30 years. The original design for the V6 started in the early 60s when Buick created a V6 based on the all aluminum 215 V8. The very first "Fireball" V6 displaced a whopping 198 cubic inches and shared tooling with the 215 V8. In 1963, the bore was increased to be the same as the 340 V8, which made displacement 225 cubic inches, where it stayed until 1967. Since the V6 had the same bore as the 340 V8 it could be produced on the same assembly line."
It would appear that the original engine was based on the Buick 215 V8, with 2 cylinders lopped off and bored. In the 60's this engine was used in RWD configuration, and it was only in the mid 70's that there was rekindled interest in this rattly old piece of shit.
Holden discovered this turd of a motor, polished it and sent it on to the masses so that every 18 year old can buy a VN and pretend to drive a V8 Supercar.
Roar Holden p0waH!
