with a 275 CID eight and tuned-port injection

I will be blunt. That is commonly referred to as an LT engine here. The other problem I have is that the engine in a '95 Caprice was a 350 CID Chevy engine. I do not remember a 275 at any point in my life. What vehicles ran them?

They were in 94 through 96 model years of the Caprice; they replaced the throttle-body-injection 305.

BTW, sorry for the typo; displacement is 265 CID. IIRC, they nicknamed the engine the "baby LT1", although its official designation was L99; bore of 3.736" and 3" stroke, with identical pistons to the Vortec 5000.
