Trannie Patterns

[sharkey]

i think the ecotec uses the same pattern as the 2.3/2.4l dohc engines.

Hmmm that could be true. Since the ecotec mates to trannies that are not shared with any other motor it may have a different pattern.

Can anyone confirm?

I might be able to get some info from Powertrain...

That would be freakin sweet. Would be great to get info right from the source. So far I think we are working with about 5 patterns

I emailed him last night about it, so I hope to hear back in a couple days. I have him working on the legalities of being able to post a DOHC assembly manual online. Looks like I just got an email from him about that, so we'll see...

[geoffinbc]

Cool cant wait to hopefully get some real insider info

[geoffinbc]

Oh and what about the SOHC 2.3L? I think it is the same block as the Quad 4 2.3L isn't it?

[patgizz]

yeah the sohc is the same as the quad, just has one cam instead of 2.

[geoffinbc]

Cool

[TheProfessor]

all gm v6s use the same pattern
after all.....they are gm

[geoffinbc]

No they dont. The 4.3L uses the smallblock pattern.

[TheProfessor]

i was actually just talking about the FWD ones

[geoffinbc]

Sure you were. :P

But that's not what you said, besides, what about the Short*? I know there is at least one other "V6" pattern as well.

[TheProfessor]

really i thought all FWD v6s had the same pattern

[geoffinbc]

What about the 4.3L Diesel FWD motor then?

Good question, AFAIK it was the only 4.3 to use the SCP, to mate with the TH125C. but I have never seen one in person, so I am going off 3rd party info unfortunatly.
