Can someone tell me the difference between LS-1, LT-1, and WS6. I also just bought my car, it's a 91 firebird a/t, how do I find out if I have a 3.8 or 3.4?

Hot Girls=Good -
LS1 - 5.7L (346 ci) V8 in 98-02 F-Body
LT1 - 5.7L (350 ci) V8 in 93-97 F-Body
WS6 is a V8 performance package, not an engine.
91 Firebird has a 3.1L (189 ci) V6
If you're wondering whether you have a V6 or V8, count the intake runners and you should see six or eight.

Yup. I'm just assuming he's got a 3.1L V6, which has individual intake runners that are clearly visible when you pop the hood.
Had a friend with a 92 RS convertible who swore he had a V8 even though you could count 6 intake runners AND spark plugs [img]graemlins/slap.gif[/img]~Derrick <a href=\"http://www.appstate.edu/~do54457/\" target=\"_blank\"><i>My Webpage</i></a><br /><b>\'96 3.8L V6 M5 Firebird Y87</b> | <b>162.8 RWHP</b> / <b>196.7 RWTQ</b> <br /><b>•</b> SLP CAI <b>•</b> <a href=\"http://tech.firebirdv6.com/y87.html\" target=\"_blank\"><b>Y87</b> Package</a> - 3.23s <b>•</b> 180º thermo w/ fan switch <b>•</b> TB spacer from DEE<br />1991 Jeep Cherokee Laredo 4x4Comment

Building the Tom Henry RS
Part 4: Suspension Mods, Tires, Wheels, Headers and other Cool Stuff.
By: Hib Halverson
At the end of Part Three, we changed the valvetrain of the 3.8-liter V6 in the Tom Henry RS. We installed new, Yella Terra "Ultralite" 1.8:1, aluminum roller rocker arms, Katech valve springs and Katech titanium retainers on our 3800 Series II V6.
