I noted the engine going in the SRX-V and Trailblazer SS would be the LS4. I'm wrong. Well sorta. Both the GP-GXP and SRX-V will be getting the 5.3L V8, however the LS4 designation will only be used for the grand prix's transverse mounted motor. I believe the designation for the SRX-V powerplant will be LQ4. Not positive about that. However, this will give way perfectly to my point...they are two very different engines. The GP-GXP will be getting the 300hp, aluminum block, transverse mount motor, while the Trailblazer SS and SRX-V will be getting a 390hp, Iron block, longitudinal mount motor. I'm pretty positive the 5.3 LQ4 retains the favored Vortec heads, whereas the LS4 will use the LS-favored heads which are similiar in design to GM's prized "fast-burn" design. Thanks for pointing that out. majeskyb 1, shadow 0 |

the GXP will be FWD for it's release. It also will not be available with a manual transmission (I would be surprised if it ever would be). However it will gain the option of AWD in 2006 (along with the Bonne GXP).
The transmissions for both GXP's use equal length halfshafts. Torque steer is pretty much non-existent. |

2 - Pontiac Firebird Trans Am WS6 is the correct terminology and is quite long winded, yes. However it is actual words...and only includes ONE of the cryptic alphanumeric combinations, which is what I was complaning about. |

2. what's the big deal? i'd gladly drive a "Subaru WRX STi ABC 123 DEF 456 GHI" if it kicks ass and is reliable in any weather condition. it would be too difficult to have an entirely different name for each trim level for each market.
