GMC's own V8 was the 637-cubic-inch (10.4 L) unit, which was essentially a 478 V6 with two cylinders added. It shared the 5.125 in × 3.86 in (130.2 mm × 98.0 mm) bore and stroke and used a single camshaft. It was manufactured in gasoline and diesel versions, and was the largest-displacement production gasoline V8 ever made for highway trucks.
The first-generation Y-block was the 317 cu in (5.2 L), which replaced the undersquare 337 cu in (5.5 L) flathead V8 on all Lincolns in the 1952 model year and was produced through 1954. [2] The 317 was oversquare, as was rapidly becoming the fashion, with a bore of 3.80 in (96.5 mm) and a stroke of 3.5 in (88.9 mm).
This cast-iron overhead valve engine used a V-angle of 90 degrees and was built in displacements of 4.1 L (253 cu in) and 5.0 L (308 cu in), the latter being de-stroked to 5.0 L (304 cu in) in 1985. The Holden V8 engine was used in various models, including the Kingswood, Monaro, Torana, Commodore, and Statesman.
It delivered 375 hp (280 kW) at 4400 rpm and a massive 525 lb⋅ft (712 N⋅m) torque at just 3000 rpm. The new engine was about 80 lb (36 kg) heavier than its predecessor. It was used through 1974. It was designed with potential for a 500-cubic-inch (8.2 L) displacement.
Displacement was 196 cubic inches (3.2 L). [2] In 1915 a new L-head water-cooled 201 cubic inches (3.3 L) inline-four engine appeared. [ 3 ] While International's own engines underwent constant developments, the pace of truck production in the twenties was such that others' engines (from Waukesha , Buda , and Lycoming for instance) had to be ...
Displacement began at 287-cubic-inch (4.7 L) and grew as large as 455-cubic-inch (7.5 L) by 1970. Pontiac continued to manufacture its own engines, distinct from Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet, or Oldsmobile, until 1981. Pontiac engines were used in its U.S.-market cars; Canadian-built Pontiac automobiles generally used Chevrolet engines.
The main change was the increase in cylinder bore from 117 mm (4.625 in) to 127 mm (5 in) and an increase in piston stroke from 133.3 mm (5.25 in) to 139.7 mm (5.5 in). This led to a corresponding increase in displacement from 7.2 liters (441 cu in) to 8.8 liters (540 cu in). The R-5 was a rough running but reliable engine.
The M156 displaces 6,208 cc (6.2 L; 378.8 cu in) and shares very little with other Mercedes-Benz engine families like the M155.The bore spacing, block design, and other features are unique to the AMG engine.
