All current production Buick V6 engines (regard(regardless of displacement) displacement) are built on common tooling, tooling, which means items such as camshafts, camshafts, valvetrain hardware, rod and main bearings, distributors, distributors, etc., etc., are interchangeable. interchangeable. All production crankshafts, connecting rods and pistons are cast. cast. Engines are applibuilt for manual and automatic transmission applications. cations. In production there are frontfront- and rearrearwheel-drive blocks; blocks; the difference is in the bellhousing bolt pattern, oil pan flange and starter location. The heavy-duty Stage I and II I1 blocks referred to in this volume are of a rear-wheel-drive rear-wheel-drive bolt-pattern configuration and cannot be used in a front-wheelfront-wheeldrive configuration without modification. It is also important to understand that Buickbuilt V6 engines are used by other General Motors Divisions. You can readily identify the Buick-built V6 by noting that the distributor is placed at a t the front of the engine, engine, whereas the distributor in V6 engines built by other GM divisions is at a t the rear bellhousing. of the engine adjacent to the bell housing. Buick Motor Division is currently building both frontfront- and rear-wheel-drive rear-wheel-drive assemblies. While the machining of components components (bore (bore centers, centers, etc.) etc.) is basisame, many pieces do not interchange bebecally the same, tween frontfront- and rear-wheel-drive rear-wheel-drive engines. engines. For instance, a front-whee front-wheel-drove does not bolt to a stance, I-drove block does rear-wheel-drive bellhousing or an automatic transtransrear-wheel-drive mission. This This volume concerns concerns itself only with rearrearmission. wheel-drive hardware and the modifications needed to make that hardware heavy-duty. heavy-duty.
Competitive Competitive Combinations Combinations The Buick V6 engine is quite flexible in terms of usthe number of displacements that can be built using both production and aftermarket hardware. Displacements of 2.5 2.5 liters (151 (151 cubic cubic inches) inches) to 4.5 liters (272 (272 cubic inches) inches) are easily attainable. attainable. The 4 Buick Power Source Source
In 1979, 1979, Buick built some 3.2L (196-cubic-inch) (196-cubic-inch) engines in production. By using this 3.500-inch 3.500-inch bore block and a production 3.0L 3.OL crank having a stroke of 2.66 inches, inches, the 2.5L V6 engine becomes a realreality with a production block and crank. crank. By using a 6.5-inch 6.5-inch connecting rod, rod, compression height of the piston is an acceptable 1.70 1.70 inches. Stage I cylinder heads would be adequate for this displacement. displacement. A professionally assembled engine built to these didimensions can be raced at a t 8000 8000 rpm. The 2.5L Buick V6 would be a formidable package in many forms forms of racing because it has a wide torque curve (much (much wider than the curves offered by the 4-cylinder 4-cylinder enengines it would be competing against). against). 3.0L 3.OL (182 (182 cubic inches) inches)
There are a number of competitive arenas for 3.0L 3.OL engines. Currently, the 3.0L 3.OL displacement can be raced in 1M SA GT /P either normally aspirated IMSA GT/P or turbocharged. In addition to finding a home in SCCA's Trans Am class in turbocharged form, form, this package makes an impressive powerplant for midgmidget racing. The 3.QL 3.OL displacement can be reached with a 3.800-inch 3.800-inch bore and a 2.66-inch stroke, stroke, which is a highly overs quare package. Stage I cylinder heads oversquare are adequate for this displacement if it is normally aspirated. A rod length of 6.35 6.35 inches is recomrecommended for this engine. engine. This is the same rod length that a production 3.0L 3.OL engine has. has. As more Buick V6 competition engines are built, it is increasingly evident that rod length has little or nothing to do with horsepower or torque; torque; so, so, you should consider using the longest rod practical to minimize cylinder wall loading. With the above mentioned dimensiondimensional package, some dome dome will be needed to obtain adadequate compression ratio (12.5:1) (12.51) for competition. If this engine is built using Stage I cylinder heads, rpm should be limited to 6500. 6500. Stage II I1 valvetrain should be limited to 8500. 8500. 3.4L 3.4L (209 (209 cubic inches) inches)
Current CART /USAC rules allow turbocharged CART/USAC stock block engines to compete against exotic exotic racing engines. Two-dimensional configurations of this displacement have been built-4.00 built-4.00 x 2.75 inches inches and 3.800 3.800 x 3.06 inches. Both configurations produced identical identical torque and horsepower. Both configconfigurations have been built with 6.56.5- and 5.9-inch 5.9-inch rods, again with no difference. Thus, Thus, for the sake of durability the configuration of 3.800 3.800 x 3.06 inches with a 6.5-inch 6.5-inch rod is recommended. These engines can safely be taken to 8800 8800 rpm.
