Introduced in 1949

The Oldsmobile LSS was introduced all the way back in 1949, marking its entry into Oldsmobile’s range during a period when the brand had just completed development of its latest engineering projects.

Supercharged 3800 V6 Powertrain

The LSS is known for using the same supercharged 3800 V6 engine found in other 1990s‑00s era GM vehicles, giving it the reputation of a “supercharged Frankenstein‑monster” among performance enthusiasts.

Hard‑to‑Find Parts and Dedicated Suppliers

Because the LSS was produced in limited numbers, many wear items such as brake, suspension, and steering components are hard to locate, prompting specialty shops and online marketplaces to specialize in sourcing hard‑to‑find OEM and aftermarket parts, including power steering racks and superchargers.
