GM has a Twin Turbo unit out and running which they plan to release sometime in the Future . The www.gm.media.com site is Informative - finding that from 2002 thru 2004 - the UpGrades to the LL8 as it is called has been Aggresive - Incredible Engine - ! http://media.gm.com/division/powertrain/news/4200_ Tech.pdf http://media.gm.com/division/powertrain/news/4200_ Spec.pdf http://media.gm.com/division/powertrain/products/engi ne/truckengines/2003/2003_ll8.htm http://media.gm.com/division/powertrain/news/2003_i ndex.html http://media.gm.com/division/powertrain/news/4200_ Overview.pdf http://media.gm.com/division/powertrain/news/4200_ Tech1.pdf http://media.gm.com/division/powertrain/press_kits/fut ure_tech/rtf/transmission_technologies/hydramatic_6 speed_auto.htm AMC Content : Well,......... last Night..... as I lay sleeping & Dreaming of a Brand New Six Speed, I hear a Knock at my Door - ;) A voice outside said : "Answer your Phone ! " ....... and just then ....... the Phone Rang!.......... It was Richard Teague..... Long Distance from Heaven........ and would I accept the Charge ! I said : "Sorry,.....can't do it right now......" and hung up . Then the Knock at the Door started again - so I answered it ........ It was the late Richard Teague ! Outside was an AMC Matador 'X' - In Black - with a Crimson Interior - a "Golden Halo" above the Roofline .......and Mr. Teague wanted Me to Drive it ! I said : "Sorry, I can't right now ..... I'm expecting a return phone call from you at any time "....... So he put me in the Trunk of the Car ....... and drove to New Jersey . We pulled into a Denny's for a few quick Blueberry Pancakes and as we did ........just then - , a 'Voice' came over the Trunk Intercom System - state-ing that the GM 4200 Inline Six Engine was completely HIS Idea - and that any AMC owners who would like to have HIS Design Engine in THEIR AMC would someday go to Heaven and have 7 Virgins just waITING for them ! And Since I've heard thru Reliable Sources that I had to Hitch-Hike back from Bayone - and just arrived here now - yeah........ just got in just about a feeooh minutes ago ........ I thought I'd BeTTer catch up on my sleep......... Brien. NEW YORK
