Why haven't you accepted that this is the best mass produced engine ever devised?

>DSM fangirl

Holy shit my sides

>I don't know what DSM means

Holy shit my sides

Fuck that's ugly. How Mexican are you?

>compares new 2016 engine to an engine thats 20+ years old and has proven reliability

>he thinks a OHV engine converted to a DOHC isn't already a pants on head retarded idea

That's not a 1UZ

Ecoboost 3.5

The shittiest agreement between the two worst automakers in the world

At least a 3800 will take much more of a beating than ecoshit.

>>he thinks a OHV engine converted to a DOHC isn't already a pants on head retarded idea

3800 was never converted to DOHC

>V6
>in a truck

>implying the 4.3 V6 wasn't the most reliable

Never said it wasn't. But it was that very idea that led to the creation of the SHO V6. The SHO V6 was originally just going to be a Vulcan with DOHC heads. Yamaha threw a fit and designed a new engine from scratch in protest.

Stupid or not, it's an interesting idea and power output was extremely impressive for the time. You have to remember, unless you got a 350 V8, that LQ1 V6 was one of the most powerful engines GM made.

Anyways the original point is that the LQ1 and LA1 share a block, crankshaft, and connecting rods, and nothing else.

>this assmad GM can't win LeMans

Nope but the 3.4 was a 3.1 OHV punched out and converted to DOHC with literally the same fucking block, even had the block off plate where the camshaft would have gone into the block

some 4g63 were made solely by mitsubishi

now go ahead, keep digging ur cuckhole

This has nothing to do with track racing, this has to do with Ecoboost being a gimmick and the 3.5 is garbage

Yes it was. It just didn't make production. They heavily considered it though. This prototype is from 1986.

>literally assmad at superior engines

kek

nice asshurt

As much work as you had to get done on your piece of shit, I'm surprised you haven't realized how much you've taken it in the ass

Doesn't that just scream cancer to you?

naturally aspirated is literal garbage

superchargers are also garbage btw

Yup. That 4.3

VQ30> GM 3800

Prove me wrong.

lmao, the cuck is also a redditor

imagine being so mad about being wrong you have to complain about anime on an anime site

Are Mitsubishi fags really this delusional? Nice car company you got, becoming the newest suzuki and shitting themselves out the North American market

>complaints about anime

This aint /a/

That's not the 4.3 Vortec.

>huge faggot who also happens to be completly unaware of cars
>gets absolutely cucked
>"b-but anime"

kek, get triggered again, fag

Saying cuck and calling somebody a redditor is the most ironic thing anyone can do.

Because the Honda b series exists

It's probably Alphonse

literally any engine is better than GM garbage

Fantastic bait OP. Always had a soft spot for the 3800 engines myself.

What about the Atlas straight-sixes? how do they compare to the 3800 both in terms of reliability and potential power and do you think they could've been godly if GM put more money into them? what about aftermarket?

just get a barra

Intake gaskets, Head Gaskets, Fuel spider, Shit power, needs balance shaft to avoid shaking itself apart.

Gayest firing order ever.

What's wrong with the 3800 firing order?

Correct me if I'm wrong but the Holden V6 is based on that motor and it's DOHC.

>3800 DOHC

>the lack of cosworth itt

>V6
>superior

...

>not even as good as Ford's ancient 300 I6

oh GMfags...

Is there an engine in existence better that the Cosworth DFV? I think not.

You can throw a turbo on any car and make it competitive, how about you give that Vette a turbo and really even things out?

It's already supercharged and has 2 more cylinders you autist.

they also make engines for poor fags
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosworth#The_SCA_series

and not with quite the reputation for exploding as some other tuners
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abarth#1949:_Abarth_.26_C

that said people expecting something adapted from mass production to a high performance application and not to have issues need to wake up or they are lucky and spoilt

nope not by a long shot. you forgot it got given to holden, who turned it rwd. and it was shit in the commodore. and the ford falcon ea-au straight 6 option beats it by a country mile
the buick engine:
>is 3800cc
the ford is 4000cc
>lasts 300,000kms
the ford goes for about 1,000,000kms
>idles at 1500rpm at 30mph
idles at 1000rpm at 30mph
>forced asperation? buick supercharged it
ford can be both. yup because the buick engine doesnt really take to turbo or twin turbos very well.

+1 for the Barra engine breh

>how bout dat tickford & t bird

not dohc is same engine seires 1 and 2 and we got the supercharged gxp

>points out why 3800 isn't god tier
>then says one of the worst GM V6's (for reliability) is better

Whenever I see that engine, I just smell coolant in the air somehow

But the 60* V6's have everything the 3800 doesn't and are, by design, a better engine. Hell, even 3400 heads outflow 3800 supercharged ones.

unrelated engine. The 3.6L Holden uses is a 60* V6 designed by Cadillac in 2004. It's part of the High Feature V6 engine family. The 3800, or Ecotec V6 as you knew it was a Buick V6 dating back to 1962 with a 90* V angle due to being a cut down V8.

GM doesn't know how to make a 6 cylinder engine run or sound right apparently. Step aside fags

Why are you so damn autistic about that engine?
Japanese V6s were so much better during that time. They were making the same amount of power NA than the 3800 was making supercharged

Just picked up an XT, EA82 stronk also

Your move VAGfag

yeah, they outflow coolant.

>Best
>V6

4.2 vortec is GOAT. It has 6 cylinders in the correct layout.

4.6L Modular DOHC is best. Will run forever.

Everybody knows the 4.9 300 i6 is the best mass produced engine.

Too much displacement, too little power.
Also, why did they sc this? They had perfectly good V8s laying around with more hp and better fuel economy.

As for a V6
