Engines
LC4 Engine, 4.1L V6, 252 cu in, 4 barrel 1983–1984
VIN code 4; Wikipedia's Buick V6 article gives the LC4 to the fifth-generation Electra through 1984, and its Electra article names the Buick 252 V6 among the generation's engines; gnttype.org's 1984 Buick VIN table prints it in the Electra Limited and Park Avenue block, a second source for 1984; its 1983 Electra block is word for word the 1984 one, so 1983 rests on Wikipedia alone and the row stays single-source
Single-source
LV2 Engine, 5.0L V8, 4 barrel, 307 cu in 1983–1984
the Oldsmobile 307 V8, VIN code Y; Wikipedia's Oldsmobile V8 article lists the LV2 for the Electra through 1984; 1983 also matches one 1983 Electra Park Avenue coupe listed on AutoHunter with the LV2, a single dealer-type listing (T4) that is not counted as a second source; 1984 also from gnttype.org's 1984 Buick VIN table, which prints it in the Electra Limited and Park Avenue block (its 1983 block is word for word the 1984 one, so it is not counted for 1983)
Single-source
LF9 Engine, diesel, 5.7L V8 1983–1984
the Oldsmobile 350 diesel V8, VIN code N; Wikipedia's Oldsmobile Diesel article lists the LF9 for the Electra through 1984; gnttype.org's 1984 Buick VIN table prints it in the Electra Limited and Park Avenue block, a second source for 1984; its 1983 Electra block is word for word the 1984 one, so 1983 rests on Wikipedia alone and the row stays single-source
