If you judge it by quantity, sure. Though I think that's more due to GM's lack of innovative design and badge engineering. They have adequate power, but aren't what most people would refer to as smooth. Perfectly adequate for a Buick, but not a match for a modern DOHC design. There's a reason why even GM has finally abandoned pushrods for many of their new engines.
