Gen 4 (vz) - Gen 4 (ve)

[Lemon]

What are the major differences between the two, apart from the obvious 10kw bump and 20nm bump. Is it still classified as the L76 that's been tweaked or is it a completely different version of the GEN 4?

Few questions I've been having trouble finding answers to.

Sorry if this has been posted else where, if it has a point in the right direction would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Yeah its just been slightly tweaked thats all... Same engine as on the VZ's really.. No information has really been released to my knowledge about the exact changes.

Its renamed. It was L76, its now L98.

From memory its a cam change and somebody told me the removal of the DOD hardware.

You sure its being renamed the L98? Where did you hear this? I wouldnt think it would be given a higher number than the L92 6.2L?

The verdict is still out whether DOD actually makes a huge difference in fuel consumpion. But still having it is a great marketing tool, as seen in the 300C ads.

If DOD DOES make a difference, I'd hate to see the 300C without it... they swallow so much fuel it aint funny!
