yes ,, without doubt the straight six should have been used in the omega . fantastic engine :y :y :y

It was getting a bit long in the tooth ....... GM had been using it since the late 60s

am I right in thinking GM used several engines for a long period of time. seem to remember ETCG going on about how they keot a chevy 5 litre in the truck for like 30 years.... but it was considered one of the best engines ever... so I suppose why change  :-\

They also used the slant four (half a U.S. V8) in all sorts of different cars (including the one in my avatar) and vans for donkeys years.Engine development is a vary expensive business. Hence Harley Davidson using the same engine in their bikes for the last 100 year. ;D

That's one fine example of a proper Vauxhall apart from the LC,Omega,Monaro etc. unlike the modern s**t being churned out these days..

There are a few Senators on eBay at the moment.
