does anybody have or know where i can get some pics similar to the ones that are on this site but for ALL engines that were available in W-bodies first, 1.5, and second gen? they all have to the same type though...like i can't have one B&W and the rest colored.

 

something similar to this would be great...

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).

^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 :wink: ).

 

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

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.

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.

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.
