it is a member of the quad 4 family of engines, and is a 2.4L version. This engine was in all Sunfire GTs' from 96-01, and early 02's. In 95, it had a quad 4, but was the 2.3 version

They both are quadrilaterals though.

So 2.4L twin cam(a.k.a LD9) is to Quad 4 as squares are to quadrilaterals.

And yea the tech 4 is good for circle track tube frame cars, that's about it. It never came in a cavalier or sunfire ever. There is pages upon pages of info on this motor on this site. research first then ask informed questions. Also if your into building a motor google Hot Rod and quad 4 for their hybrid build up.
