  • Even or Odd fire?

    i have searched but cannot come up with is if a 3.1 is even or odd fire?

    Even fire, all 660s are. AFAIK, only the early 3.8 Buick is an oddfire, maybe some very early 4.3s, but I don't recall that as a production thing or as a prototype only.

      For any inquiring minds there was a Buick 3.8L oddfire (common pin) crank, Semi even fire and a true even fire crank.

      There was also the same for the 4.3L but the oddfire was only avalible as a raw forging from GM and can take mega power.

      An interesting fact. The oddfire cranks are smoother at high RPM in the 90* motors.

          Your not implying that the 123456 firing order has anything to do with it being an even fire motor are you?

            I really hope Dave would know better than that.

              No, i think in 3D

              I was picturing the block firing in the right order...
