All the coupes that were released to the public for sale had the 3.1. Out of the 96 (or 98) convertibles that were made, all but 3 had the 3.1, while the 3 special ones got the above mentioned 3.4.
I don't know why so many people think a regular ole Indy sold to the public would have received the special 100% custom hand built 3.4L engine that probably cost more than the base car... I mean come on look at all the literature of the Indy's no where does it say any Indy sold to the public had that motor.

Go find the winner of the 1990 Indy 500 and ask him what he did with his Pace car, and then go find the guy who bought the GM one from Barrett Jackson, or go to the Indy Museum and ask to see the 1990 Beretta pace car... That's where the three 3.4L engines are located.
