Yeah, but you're missing the fact that the civic has more valves per cylinder and has a higher revving motor. Comparing that to a OHV family sedan makes absolutely no sense. They're not even in the same classification of cars. Honda obviously put more effort into that engine's performance than GM did for the 3400. The 3400 is meant for grocery getters in all honesty, but you still make it one bad ass of an engine if you put the effort into it.
