Pics of the new 3.6 VVT and more 3500 pics.

[v6h.o.]

Since this is both DOHC and Pushrod engine pics, I'll post in here.

Took some pics of both a G6 3500 engine. and a new SV6 (what was the Montana van) 3500. -which by the way as you will see in the pics uses a P/S pump. and also uses the normal old style X-over pipe manifolds feeding into each other setup. where as the G6/Malibu's as we've seen before uses the Dual setup where the front and rear are split and just "Y" together in the exhaust pipe.

the pics of the G6 were taken just to show more clearly how the belt routes for the Lack of P/S with the Electronic assisted Steering Column setup.

The pics of the 3.6L VVT engine is from a new Buick Allure, Or as you 'Merican folks know it the LaCrosse. In Canadier GM Canada had to change the Name of the Lacross, as in fucking Quebec (where 80% or whatever of French speaking canadian citizens live) "LaCrosse" is a Slang/swear word for a sexual act.. so not to offend people GM changed the name to Allure..

as you can see here, GM USA: http://www.buick.com/lacrosse/
GM Canada: http://www.gmcanada.com/english/vehi.../buick/allure/

what i found odd on the 3.6L is that it has the front manifold cutting across in a xover style, then the rear one joining and then theyloop all stupid and exit.. ? im not sure what the hell the story is here...
I have a GM service manual Pic of it in the folder as well so you can see.

Hmmm, nice pics Colin.

I was looking for some more pics of the 3500 and the lack of power steering.

I think my plan of mounting my Ign. module and coils where the P/S pump used to be won't work after all. Kinda hard to tell from pics... I'll try it in the spring.

Suppposedly a form of masterbation.. However I know a few people who have said they've never even heard of this take on the word used this way..

Ben I'll try and zip those up for you. You guys can use them. Thats why i took the pics.

Mars, Im not sure how you were planning on fitting the coil packs there. but it wont work.

Now you need to get pics of the 3400 plenum in the Equinox.

Lacrosse here is a sport IIRC.. where they have long sticks with cupped ends and they run around flinging the ball at eachother..

Yeah i know. Lacrosse is actually Canada's National Sport. Most people dont know that. But Hockey is not our "national" sport. or whatever you want to call it. Lacrosse is. It originated in Canada as well.

hey if they thought it was hockey at least they had a start... i would expect them thinking our national sport would be dogsled mounted beaver hunting. maybe igloo building..

box lacrosse owns show.

what made them decide to place the air intake on the oposite side of the engine bay from the TB and THEN route the passage directly over the front exhaust manifold...christ...look at all that ambient heat. i can see some very nice gains if one were to do a FWI on the drivers side of the car on that G6.
