However, the 10.5" 14-bolt axle remains in production today, specifically utilized in GMC Savana and Chevrolet Express vans. Notably, the 11.5" 14-bolt axle is featured in third-generation Dodge Ram 2500 and 3500 trucks. There are discernible differences between the GM and Ram versions, evident in the gaskets used and the axle cover designs.
The large-journal connecting rods were thicker (heavier) and used 3 ⁄ 8 in (9.5 mm) diameter cap-bolts to replace the small-journal's 11/32. 1968 blocks were made in 2-bolt and 4-bolt versions with the 4-bolt center-three main caps each fastened by two additional bolts which were supported by the addition of thicker crankcase main-web bulkheads.
The 502—with a 501.28 cu in (8.2 L) total displacement—had a bore and stroke of 4.466 in × 4 in (113.4 mm × 101.6 mm) and a cast iron 4-bolt main block. GM offered it in their Performance Parts catalog, available as multiple crate motors with horsepower ratings from 338 to 600 hp (252 to 447 kW) and torque of 470 to 567 lb⋅ft (637 to ...
These continued to change as Chevrolet introduced modifications, peaking with the 1969 L-48 350 V8 which produced 300 hp (224 kW) (gross). [5] In 1969, a Perkins 4.236 , 3.9-liter (236 in 3 ) naturally aspirated diesel engine was available as an option for all models, but for only one year.
The 260 was designed for economy, and was the first engine option above the Chevrolet 250 straight-six, then later the 3.8 L Buick V6, which was standard fitment in many Oldsmobile models by the late 1970s. While the 260s were not very powerful compared to the larger 350 and 403 V8s, fuel economy was almost as good as the base V6.
Flywheel bolt pattern is the same as the six and V8, with 1 ⁄ 2 inch (12.7 mm) bolts for the flywheel if produced after the 1966 model year. Production of the engine was shifted to Mexico in 1980, and later variants of this engine were marketed as the High Torque 4.8 L and by its RPO code L25. Unlike the later 250 inline 6 that was designed ...
The bolt circle diameter is typically expressed in mm and accompanies the number of bolts in your vehicle's bolt pattern. One example of a common bolt pattern is 5x100 mm. This means there are 5 bolts evenly spaced about a 100 mm bolt circle. The picture to the right is an example of a 5×100 mm bolt pattern on a Subaru BRZ. The wheel has 5 lug ...
Spline drives were specified for 5, 6.3, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, and 20 mm size screws. [84] Its primary advantage is its ability to resist cam-out, so it is used in high-torque applications, such as tamper-proof lug nuts, cylinder head bolts, and other engine bolts.
