A four-stroke V12 engine has even firing order at V-angles of 60, 120, or 180 degrees [1] [unreliable source] Many V12 engines use a V-angle of 60 degrees between the two banks of cylinders. [2] V12 engines with other V-angles have been produced, sometimes using split crankpins to reduce the unbalanced vibrations. The drawbacks of V12 engines ...
The GM High Feature engine (also known as the HFV6, and including the 3600 LY7 and derivative LP1) is a family of modern DOHC V6 engines produced by General Motors. The series was introduced in 2004 with the Cadillac CTS and the Holden Commodore (VZ). It is a 60° 24-valve design with aluminum block and heads and sequential multi-port fuel ...
The first engine to use the S70 name is a 5,576 cc (340.3 cu in) variant of the M70 engine fitted only to the E31 850CSi. [17] With 1,510 units produced, this is the lowest production BMW engine to date. [18] Three prototype dual overhead camshaft S70 engines were constructed, prior to the decision to not produce an E31 M8 model. [19] Applications:
The engines were also sold for marine and stationary applications. In a 1938 reorganization, Winton Engine Corporation became the GM Cleveland Diesel Engine Division, and GM's Detroit Diesel Engine Division began production of smaller (50–149 cu in (0.8–2.4 L) per cylinder) diesel engines. Locomotive engines were moved under the GM Electro ...
The engine was designed from the start to be a quad cam 60 degree V12 - as an intentional snub to Ferrari's single overhead camshaft per-bank design. When the 3,464-cubic-centimetre (211.4 cu in) prototype was tested in 1963, it was able to produce 370 brake horsepower (276 kW; 375 PS) at 9,000 (rpm), or almost 107 brake horsepower (80 kW; 108 ...
Mangoletsi also convinced Rubery Owen to sponsor the effort, and to revive the BRM name for the engine as the BRM Type 290, even though it was unrelated to BRM's own earlier V12 engine. The car was similarly named the BRM P351. Five engines were built, each reportedly able to produce 625 bhp (466 kW) at 11,500 rpm.
The Rolls-Royce Griffon is a British 37-litre (2,240 cu in) capacity, 60-degree V-12, liquid-cooled aero engine designed and built by Rolls-Royce Limited.In keeping with company convention, the Griffon was named after a bird of prey, in this case the griffon vulture.
An evolution of the 1964 DOHC prototype “XJ13” engine, the Jaguar V12 engine is a family of SOHC internal combustion V12 engines with a common block design, that were mass-produced by Jaguar Cars for a quarter of a century, from 1971 to 1997, mostly as 5.3‑litres, but later also as 6‑litres, and 7‑litre versions that were deployed in racing.
