Chevrolet Monte Carlo Engines and Transmissions

Every Chevrolet Monte Carlo engine here is gasoline-fed and sends power rearward through an automatic transmission, so driving is effortless in traffic. The 3.8 AT is the easier-going choice on fuel, while the 5.0 AT trades some economy for stronger low-speed pull and a deeper V8 note.
