It's 90°, It can't run smooth without a balance shaft, a MASSIVE harmonic balancer and a split pin crankshaft. A V6 should be 60°. It was a V8 derived engine, just like the 4.3.


Also, the 3800 has been out of production for almost a whole year now yet they're still using it through the 2009 LaCrosse.
