Hi, I am new to this forum and hoping someone can help me with some information. I am trying to find out the dimensions and weight of a stock 3.8L V6. Were they the same sizes in the various models , VT, VS etc?

Yea mate.. try driving the car with a full bag of cement on the bonnet...same thing.........car will have a lot of wieght onthe front of it.....rollaboy said:does anyone know if putting a v6 into a corolla which is adding about 55 kilos over the front is gonna make any drastic difference in handling??
I think you may have been measuring an ecotec engine as the VR motors don't have a "plenum box", also the dimensions are the same as the ecotecs I have on the floor.Natsnud said:Went to a wrecker today and got the following approximate dimensions for a VR Commodore V6 engine:
Length: 560mm - flywheel outer to crank pulley nut outer.
Width: 530mm - Outer to outer of cam covers. Add about 70mm for exhaust header to header.
Height: 670mm - bottom of front sump to top of plenum box.
I dont think there would be any difference to the Ecotech engine.
Hope this helps others. Still havent got the weight yet.
I cant believe no one could tell me these dimensions!
