| LG6 | Engine, 3.1L V6 | 1990–1995 | Wikipedia's Silhouette article gives LG6 in the first-generation infobox and lists the 3.1 LG6 V6 for 1990–1995, which dates 1990 and 1991 (no listed kit page prints LG6 for those years); 1992–1995 from the single-condition remarks "W/3.1L Engine, LG6" on the engine block heater lines of the optional-equipment weight pages (1993 and 1994 on p.40, 1992 on p.42, 1995 on p.77); the Chevrolet Lumina APV doc adds electronic fuel injection from a powertrain page not cited here; shared U-body code; cited from the Chevrolet Lumina APV kit GM Heritage factory kit — 1992 Chevrolet LuminaAPV, p.42. GM Heritage factory kit — 1993 Chevrolet LuminaAPV, p.40. GM Heritage factory kit — 1994 Chevrolet LuminaAPV, p.40. GM Heritage factory kit — 1995 Chevrolet LuminaAPV, p.77. | Single-source |
| L27 | Engine, 3800 3.8L V6, multiport fuel injection | 1992–1995 | requires M13; optional (Wikipedia: optional from 1992, replaced for 1996); Wikipedia's Silhouette infobox gives L27 for the generation; the weight pages print the engine's own line (1992 p.42, 1994 p.40, 1995 p.79; the 1993 p.40 line prints it as 127) and the remarks "W/3800 Engine, L27" on the block heater lines; 1995: not on the cargo van, as the kit marks it; shared U-body code; cited from the Chevrolet Lumina APV kit GM Heritage factory kit — 1992 Chevrolet LuminaAPV, p.42. GM Heritage factory kit — 1993 Chevrolet LuminaAPV, p.40. GM Heritage factory kit — 1994 Chevrolet LuminaAPV, p.40. GM Heritage factory kit — 1995 Chevrolet LuminaAPV, p.79. | Single-source |
| LA1 | Engine, 3.4L V6 | 1996 | the only engine for 1996 per Wikipedia's Silhouette article (first-generation infobox and 1996 section), which is the only source cited; no listed kit page for 1996 prints the code, so the row is single-source; the Chevrolet Lumina APV doc gives sequential fuel injection from a 1996 power teams page not cited here; shared U-body code | Single-source |
| Transmissions | ||||
| M13 | Transaxle, 4 speed automatic | 1992–1995 | with the L27, which it requires; the kit pages print "4-Speed Automatic Transmission"; matched to the unit by meaning: Wikipedia gives the 3800 a 4 speed 4T60-E automatic from 1992 but prints no code; 1995: not on the cargo van; 1996 is not claimed because no listed 1996 kit page prints M13; shared U-body code; cited from the Chevrolet Lumina APV kit GM Heritage factory kit — 1992 Chevrolet LuminaAPV, p.42. GM Heritage factory kit — 1993 Chevrolet LuminaAPV, p.40. GM Heritage factory kit — 1994 Chevrolet LuminaAPV, p.40. GM Heritage factory kit — 1995 Chevrolet LuminaAPV, p.79. | Single-source |
| Equipment | ||||
| NW9 | Traction control | 1994 | requires L27; the kit marks it interim availability; matched to the item by meaning: Wikipedia says traction control was available with the 3800 for 1994 and 1995 but prints no code; 1995 is left out because the 1995 kit page lists traction control without a code; shared U-body code; cited from the Chevrolet Lumina APV kit GM Heritage factory kit — 1994 Chevrolet LuminaAPV, p.40. | Single-source |
