Here are the main features new for the Series I 3800 according to firebirdv6.com:
Low-drag piston rings, digital exhaust gas recirculation, direct-impingement fuel-injection targeting, and a quick-start ignition were added in 1988. A new counter-rotating balance shaft eliminated the second-order rocking couple inherent to all V-6 engines.
