Powertrain Options and Availability
Most Cavaliers in 1990 contained a 2.2-liter base engine with throttle-body fuel injection, which made 95 horsepower. Standard in the Z24 and optional in the station wagon was a 3.1-liter V6 that whipped up 135 horses and 180 pound-feet of torque. Both engines came with a standard 5-speed manual transmission. With the base engine, that gearbox was made by Isuzu; for the V6, it was a Muncie Getrag unit. A 3-speed automatic transmission was optional with either engine. Base engines gained 15 horsepower in 1992, with a new fuel-injection system; then 10 more horses in '94.
