recontruir motor holden vt 1999 especificações de aperto

[NETO]

hello I have a problem to rebuild the engine of my 99 year Holden exported to Brazil.
Could someone help me with the tightening specifications of the engine as
tightening of cylinder heads
tightening of rods covers
tightening of the crankshaft bearings fixed
and how to put the engine at the point (set up chain of command)
and moreover how can I import parts for Brazil with an insurance company for auto parts.

PS: sorry for the mistakes because I'm using the google translator to write in English
PS2: My vehicle is a holden vt year 1999 (in Brazil called omega Australian to be imported from Australia to Brazil)

Hi JA
The engine was made in the USA, cheaper and closer to Brazil to get parts from there.

Thank 9C1pack .. I contact to verify the possibility of importing these parts for Brazil and so rebuild my engine and leave it again

I thought the Buick engine was discontinued with the introduction of the ecotec? Do I have it wrong?

Olá

melhor conselho que posso dar-lhe seria comprar um destes:

Holden Commodore VT VX VY VZ Workshop Car Repair Manual | eBay

isso vai ter todas as especificações para o torque, e irá atendê-lo com qualquer outra coisa que você irá precisar.

Desculpe eu não posso ajudar com a obtenção das peças, e também muito se o meu português não é tão grande

graças dylan

If you read this
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buick_V6_engine
It explains the evolution of the engine, and also the the vehicles it has been supplied in, Buick, Pontiac, Oldsmobile (inc commodore)
Its a bit like "grandpa's axe" it has been in the family since the 60's had 6 new handles and 2 new heads, but its still the same axe that grandpa used (not) :-)

[ucwepn]

there is a collection of workshop manuals on another forum hopefully I don't get in trouble for posting this it wont let me paste the link.
go to the stato . com forum and its in the mechanical section.

Buick V6 engine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

What a great read!

[9C1pack]

Glad it was of interest.
As these engines were sold in such volume in the USA, there is heaps of info on diagnostics and trouble shoooting etc.
If you search 3800 GM, and/or include Buick, Pontiac etc, you can find heaps

OUR ADIMIRADO'M REALLY MUCH OF HELP, THANK YOU TO ALL WHO ARE REALLY help me,
AND STAFF WOULD LIKE TO KNOW MORE THING Maybe you can help me AGAIN CHECK THE PARTS THAT 9C1PACK me review BUT IN THIS NOTICE WITH THE SPECIFIED MEASURES STD PISTON AND RINGS FOR 0.20,0.30,040 AND STD 010,020,030 for bearings.
My question is: What measures IRAM REAL THAT HAVE TO BE THE CRANKSHAFT AND CONNECTING RODS FOR USE THESE PARTS AND SOMEONE CONENHECE PARTS MANUFACTURER OF THIS? ARE REALLY GOOD??

PARTS IN BRAZIL rectifiers are as follows, STD, 025MM.0.50MM, will equal the U.S. ...

[9C1pack]

TOP QUALITY manufacturers such as KeithBlack-Silvolite, Federal Mogul, Hastings, Melling, Cloyes, Clevite, EngineTech, Victor Reinz, King, Dura-Bond, and Sealed Power
These are known quality brands.

STD PISTON AND RINGS FOR 0.20,0.30,040 AND STD 010,020,030 for bearings = Imperial measurements (thousands of an inch)
I hope this is what you wanted, maybe GEN3RATD could help with the translation?

NOTE:
It is important to follow the given procedure to avoid
head gasket failure and possible engine damage.
5. Tighten all cylinder head bolts to 34 Nm.
The next step requires the use of Tool No.
E7115 with the torque wrench.
NOTE:
If a torque of 90 Nm at any time in step 6 is
reached, STOP tightening that particular head bolt.
6. Tighten each bolt 90 degrees in the order
shown.
7. Further tighten all bolts in the specified order
to 90 Nm.
8. The remaining reinstallation of components is
the reverse of removal procedures.
9. Start engine, check for oil, coolant, fuel and
exhaust leaks. Repair as necessary.
