Seems like the 60*v6 is becoming more and more prolific.

I miss heads and intakes that were pretty enough to not need full-engine beauty covers, though.

[IsaacHayes]

Wow GM sure decied that the V6 specifically the 60 is goign to be their main power house for all their stuff! Sure is a lot of different varients, sometimes of the same basic motor!

[bszopi]

Yeah, but unfortunately the 3800 still exists. I could have sworn it was getting killed off... The L67 is dead, though. Now its the L26 and the L32.

[dohcfiend]

hmm look like 2 dohc variants. also digging the timing chain on that 2.8 :drool:

also isn't the 2.8 dohc available on cadi's too?

[bszopi]

Yeah, the 2.8 is available in 1 Caddy model. I didn't list all of the models each of these are available in.

The L66 for the Saturn Vue is actually a SOHC.

[dohcfiend]

oh ok. the other variant i was referring to was the 3.6. i suppose it is safe to assume that the 3.6 dohc is also running a timing chain too?

p.s. the l66 needs a beauty cover b/c that intake looks like shit.

[bszopi]

The 2.8L DOHC is actually just a variant of the 3.6L DOHC.

[SappySE107]

Too many damn 60V6s now. 3 3.5 liter engines!

[bszopi]

4 actually, if you include the SOHC.

LZE
LZ4
L66
LX9

[RacerX11]

The Vue engine is a Honda.

[Rhedalert]

I was just gonna say too, isn't the Vue motor a Honda?

[geoffinbc]

The 4.3L is still kicking too. It is only in the Silverado/Sierra. But this year or last it got a real MPFI injections system in place of the CSFI system. Along with that came a new intake. It also got coil pack ignition and ditched the distributor after all these years.

[grandprixgtp_91]

well we have a caddie in stock at work with the 2.8L and its a german engine, and totally gutless, now the 3.6L in the cts has balls, i love that engine.

The turbo 2.8L, which is just a smaller displacement version of the 3.6L but with a turbo, is gutless?

Well, I just looked at the numbers, and you are probably right... 2.8L turbo puts out 210hp/194ft-lbs, whereas the 3.6L puts out 255hp/252ft-lbs. I guess I never really looked at the number before.
