Engine size

[mrss6ltr]

How you all going?
I was wondering if anyone would know the 6ltr engines size.
For example we all know the.
4.2 ltr is the 253 motor.
5.0 ltr is the 308 motor.
5.7 ltr is the 350 motor.
6.0 ltr is the ??? motor.
Would anyone know this?:

[Ozzie]

60.ltr is a 353 isnt it?

[mrss6ltr]

Im not sure? I thought it would be a bit bigger.

[Stan003]

nah ive got a 5.8lt and its 355... probably arond the 370 mark

[mrss6ltr]

so it could be in the 360`s?

[mrss6ltr]

370`s does sound good.

366.14 cubic inch

the conversion rate is 16.3871, that'll give you cubic centremetres, divide that by 1000, n that gives you cubic litres, so if you have the cubic inches, say, 350, times it by 16.3871, that'll give you cubic centremetres, 5735.485, divide that by 1000, that gives you 5.735L

umm a 5.7 is not a 366... An LS1 5.7 is 346ci...

I got 369.6ci anyway, based on a 5.0 being 308, divide 308 by 5 then times by 6 = 369.6

366 cubic inches, Mexican-built 6.0-litre V8 engine. GM Holden's V8 range of Commodores are the first vehicles in the world to be outfitted with the new 8-cylinder, 6.0-litre L76 engine, which says a lot about the importance of the Australian brand within the global structure at GM.

[Jo3_Blo]

OH!

I always see 5.7s being referred to as 350s.....

Does the same go for the old 350 chev motors? Aren't they called 5.7s?

pity VE's have the L98, 06 VZ's had the L76 as a gap engine between the LS1 and L98.

oh and BTW copy and paste much?

oh and to the OP, 5.0 is 308 carby fed or 304 fuel injected.

Not entierly true.

There are also 304 carby fed motors in late VKs, and all VLs

[1991_Vn2nV]

The L98 and L76 6.0L V8's are actually a 364...

Not a 366. Its 5967cc...Not 6000cc

[Johnsy]

LS2 is a :364
LS3 is a:376

ect....

From my understanding :- http://holmart.com.au/online/category5_1.htm#1567

LS1 - 5.7L - 346ci

LS2/L76/L98 - 6L - 366ci

LS3 - 6.2L - 379ci (i got one sitting here )

[1991_Vn2nV]

From my understanding :- SPECIALS December 08

LS1 - 5.7L - 346ci

LS2/L76/L98 - 6L - 366ci

LS3 - 6.2L - 379ci (i got one sitting here )

We've already established the fact that an LS2/L76/L98 is a 364, NOT a 366.

And the LS3 is a 376. NOT a 379.

Work it out instead of beleiving everything you read on the net.

[SIG-054]

how about read the paper work i got when the new engine arrived?

[1991_Vn2nV]

lol where from? Holmart?

You know its not exactly 6.2L right? Its 6.162L or 6,162cc.

1cc = 0.06102ci

6,162 x 0.06102 = 376.00524ci... 376ci.

I'll let you do it for the LS2/L98/L76 if you like which are 5,967cc. If you decide to trust me, thats 364.1ci

[SIG-054]

no not from homart genius...

[1991_Vn2nV]

Either way, you and your paperwork are mistaken
