I believe they started life as a 2.8l V6, and later recieved a 3.1l V6, before the most recent model change which brought with it the Quad fore 2.4l, 16v 4 cylinder. Called the "quad fore", because in addition to the twin cams in the head, Chevy tossed in an extra 2 "cams" down below somewhere to act as counter balancing rotating mass for the purpose of lessening engine vibration.

i don't see what's suprising about a grand am race... i mean good job and all, but my guess is it was a v-6 am? not sure if there is such, don't really care, but i had raced a stock am up a slope.. and had no problem beating that one... btw i was wondering.. if you do a harness.. is that just as good (law-wise) as the manufaturer seatbelts? like can you get a ticket if you just have the harness?
