Valley olds is an unknown quantity at this point
I think I have also read that something else that caused the hp difference in the ecotec, was the exhaust manifold. Newer ecotecs have an O as the outlet in the exhaust manifold. Older ecotecs have a more restrictive D as the outlet. I am sure a manifold swap should bring the ecotec up to par with the 2.4. But yeah, to each their own. One thing I like about the 2.4 is that installing a supercharger is easier and at one time was cheaper.
