supercharged buick v6 is certianly not from a factory commodore!!! nice how they fail to mention in their listing, that there are no factory tunes avaialble for that engine in australia for a commodore and will need custom tuning...

L67 series 1 is all I know. Wikipedia should tell ya, there is a whole page dedicated tot he 3.8L v6 and all the little info you didn't know.

VY engines are series III

BTW thats not a new engine as they list, its rebuild. looks at the ring of staining around the water jackets plus rust inside them, paint on the exhaust ports is another obvious one. They paint the blocks before commencing machining. Also the sump is stock holden, US engine have totally differnt and odd looking sumps.

I say its had the SC added to a rebuilt engine.
