it's a 4. however i have a couple questions.

Chevy Silverado Z-71,Corvette Z-06, Lumina Z-34? these don't exactly fit your nomeclature. not trying to nit pick.

you are correct in the first three however. Z-24 has the 2.4L ecotec I-4. The biggest engine even put in a Cavy (from the factory) was the 2.8L F/I V-6. Which by the way is a HORRIBLE engine. (had one in the ol' tank)...

Default that is bull

my friends got a z-24 and it came stock with a 3.4 v6, so your nomenclature is way off.

i work with these
cars all day long! the biggest engine put into a cavalier was a 3.1 from 90-94 model years. GM NEVER put a 3.4 into a cavalier! the 95 z24 came with a 2.3 dohc engine while the 96-up z24 came with the 2.4 dohc engines.

i hope that clears up the false claims of the "factory equipped" 3.4 in the z24!

how ever it may be posible that he has a lumina z34 which did in fact come with a dohc 3.4 v6 engine. any more questions?????

thank you and drive to 2nd window please!!

YES some of the newer luminas did come with a 3.8.
i don't believe they were called z34s though
