3.4s ended in '95. Some '95's got 3.8 i.e. California. All '96's received the 3.8

3.4's are mid 16 second cars.

3.8's are mid to high 15 seconds unless you have the y87 package, then you are mid to low 15 seconds.

Even with that kids mods on his 3.4, he is still in the 16 second range.

That sums it all up.

 

yeah ... 3.8 was the standard engine in 1996. I am sure there may be some variations, but if its a 96, and he says it is then it should not have a 3.4.
