digitaloutsider Posted March 23, 2005 Report Posted March 23, 2005 a 3800 LN3 would be cool to 8) If only the motor itself was cool. Quote

maybe2fast Posted March 23, 2005 Report Posted March 23, 2005 yet his sig says he wants a Grand National which is a 3.8 (3800) very very very similar to the LN3 only turbo charged. hmmmm Quote

mfewtrail Posted March 23, 2005 Report Posted March 23, 2005 I know you didn't want them to all be different, but this was all I've found so far(maybe you can find the other motors in similar pictures like these...I'm pretty sure Ben or someone at the 60* board has all the 60* V6 pics archived). http://home.alltel.net/mfewtrail/images/3.4DOHC.jpg http://home.alltel.net/mfewtrail/images/3800_series_III_L67.jpg http://home.alltel.net/mfewtrail/images/3800_series_II_L67.jpg http://home.alltel.net/mfewtrail/images/3800_series_II_L36.jpg http://home.alltel.net/mfewtrail/images/3100.jpg ^I think that's a late model 3100 if you were wanting the seperate 1st vs. 2nd Gen 3100's(I'm not sure what visual changes were made....I think some had horizontal lines on the plenum and maybe you could tell the EGR's and something else were different on them...I'll let someone else answer that ). EDIT: Some of the same type pics as above for the newer/newest models can be found here. http://media.gm.com/division/2005_prodinfo/powertrain/engines/05_car_engine_specs.html Quote
GnatGoSplat Posted March 23, 2005 Report Posted March 23, 2005 You could take a color picture and turn it to grayscale in Photoshop. I think Photoshop also has some filters that can turn a photo into what looks like a charcoal sketch. You might try that if you have Photoshop. BTW, that pic you posted, I scanned out of the 1994 Cutlass Supreme brochure. Quote
MoTox8410 Posted March 23, 2005 Report Posted March 23, 2005 whats the chain on the 3.4 dohc that looks like a timing chain Quote
GnatGoSplat Posted March 23, 2005 Report Posted March 23, 2005 It's a timing chain that drives the dummy camshaft. The dummy camshaft exists to drive the oil pump drive (the dummy distributor). The timing chain exists because GM was too cheap to pay for additional tooling required to build an all-new DOHC block, so they recycled a pushrod engine design to make it DOHC. A normal DOHC drives the oil pump off the crankshaft which would have made a lot more sense, reduced complexity, and reduced moving parts. BUT it would have cost more. Quote
90TGP Posted March 23, 2005 Report Posted March 23, 2005 Anyone have one of the 3.1 turbo motor? Quote
mfewtrail Posted March 24, 2005 Report Posted March 24, 2005 Anyone have one of the 3.1 turbo motor? I think I've got one in an article somewhere, I'll have to take a picture of the article though(no scanner)...so the pic *might* be crappy. EDIT: Found it and this was the best I could do w/ taking a digi pic of the brochure it's from. http://home.alltel.net/mfewtrail/images/LG5.jpg and an even shittier pic of a quad4 from the same brochure... http://home.alltel.net/mfewtrail/images/quad4.jpg Quote
