However, because of its same 4.000" bore and 3.480" stroke as the ubiquitous 350 V8, this V6 was able to use the same pistons, main and cam bearings, valve components, etc. To do so, it was necessary to balance the motor externally and the flywheel was no longer interchangeable with the earlier V6's and most SBC V8's. It was converted into an even-fire motor.
CHEVY SONIC ENGINE BOLT PATTERN UPGRADE
In 1985, the V6 underwent its next upgrade to 262 CID. The Chevy V6 is now one of the most requested conversion motors by our customers and we believe that this is for very good reason. As a general rule, if the Jeep would allow for an F-head to fit, the 4.3L will fit nicely. However, it should be noted that the V6 in its injected forms it typically too tall for low-hood Jeeps, such as the pre-CJ3B Universals. The V6's reasonably compact form and lighter weight make it perfect for many CJ's, Wranglers and even the heavier Jeep truck applications. On one of our own installs into a CJ8 Scrambler, it would tear its 35" tires loose on clean asphalt, despite the particular Jeep's heavier build. When installed into a Jeep and driven, the Chevy V6 is easily mistaken for a V8. This V6 engine was largely found in Chevrolet cars during this era. In 1980, the was increased to 229 CID using parts and dimensions based on the 305 V8. The motor first featured a displacement of 200 cubic inches, sharing key internal dimensions with the original Chevy 262 V8. The motor was internally balanced and featured the standard two valves per cylinder. Because its crank was a shortened version of the V8 crank, this motor was an "odd-fire" design, firing its cylinders at uneven intervals.
This Chevy 90-degree V6 had the same rear block face & bolt pattern, as well as the same style of engine mounting bosses and accessory packages as its bigger brother. This new V6 would essentially be a V8 with cylinders #6 & #3 removed, similar to what Buick had successfully done with its V6 in the 1960's. The energy and fuel crunch of the era dictated a lighter, leaner motor than the V8 and GM took on the engineering and production of an important new engine. The Chevrolet V6 has become a very important Jeep conversions engine, and is swapped into many Jeeps with great frequency now.īy 1978, Chevrolet had 23 years of building its famous Small Block V8 under its belt.
