It has a knock sensor
Electronic egr
All serpentine belt set ups
Not too much different else than that when compared to say a 1988 2.8l

Re: V6 Lh0 pros and cons
it's easier to tune and had lots of things you can do with it for its time.
speed density means it has a map sensor to read pressure and vaccum to control it's fueling timing exc. It doent have a mass air flow sensor like most thirdgens before 1990. In my opinion speed density is much easier to tune. The bad thing though is any major modification ie. A cam exc. You have to retune the ecm to get the most out of it. If you had a mass air flow set up, it will compensate for the added airflow to a certain extent. It will even read a little bit of boost about 5 or 6 psi max if you turboed your 2.8l. But if you turboed a 3.1l you need to tune the ecm. Period. Map does not read volume of air. Justhe pressure and vaccum
