The engines were produced in two major variants differing by their piston displacement: a 3.3 L; 201.4 cu in (3,301 cc) and a 3.8 L; 230.5 cu in (3,778 cc). The 3.3 was dropped after 2010 with the Chrysler minivans, and the 3.8 was dropped after 2011 with the Jeep Wrangler, ending 22 years in production.
The roomy LaCrosse is available with GM's proven 3.8-liter pushrod V-6. while the 2009 Ultimate New Car Guide from the editors of Automobile are more specific on page 36: GM's old workhorse iron block pushrod 3.8-liter V-6 pulls engine duty for CX and CXL models, but it is coarse and noisy at high engine speeds.
This engine used a provision in the rules intended for stock block pushrod engines such as the V-6 Buick engines that allowed an extra 650 cm³ and 10 inches (4.9 psi/33.8 kPa) of boost. This extra power (1,024 horsepower , [ 15 ] which was up a 150-200 hp advantage over the conventional V-8s.
The L67 and L36 do not share pistons. L67 pistons are heavier and have a different height to lower compression. Both engines share the same engine blocks, but compression is reduced from 9.4:1 in the L36 to 8.5:1 for the L67. GM listed the engine output as 240 hp (179 kW) and 280 lb⋅ft (380 N⋅m) of torque.
Wards 10 Best Engines is an annual list of the ten "best" automobile engines available in the U.S. market, that are selected by Wards AutoWorld magazine. The list was started in 1994 for model year 1995, and has been drawn every year since then, published at the end of the preceding year.
A 307 cu in (5.0 L) version was produced from 1968 through 1973. Engine bore and stroke was 3.875 in × 3.25 in (98.4 mm × 82.6 mm). All 307s had large 2.45-inch (62.2 mm) journals to accept the 327's crankshaft. Pistons used with the 307 share the same pin height as the 327 but retain the 283's bore size.
This engine is unrelated to Ford's British Essex V6. Introduced in 1982, versions of the Essex V6 engine family were used in subcompact through to large cars, vans, minivans, and some pickup trucks. The Essex V6 was last used in the 2008 regular-cab F-150, after which it was succeeded by a version of the Ford Cyclone engine. An industrial ...
The High Value engine family from General Motors is a group of cam-in-block or overhead valve V6 engines.These engines feature cast iron blocks and aluminum heads, and use the same 60° vee bank as the 60° V6 family they are based on, but the new 99 mm (3.90 in) bore required offsetting the bores by 1.5 mm (0.059 in) away from the engine center line.
