Caymen- Engine Dimensions

[Travis Munday]

A while back you asked if I could find the 4.0 SOHC dimensions in comparison to several V8s. I finally found them, instead of bringing the thread back from the dead, I'd start a new one...



302 is 29L X 29W X 27.5H and weighs 460lbs

4.6 is 36L X 36W X 44H and weighs 600lbs

4.0 is 27L X 28W X 30H and weighs 360lbs



However, the site I found with the 4.0 dimensions lists the 4.6 as a 30 X 29 X 30 engine, with a 529lbs weight, so take the 4.0 dimensions as you will

Is there any differance between the SOHC's and the pushrod versions of the 4.0 as far as demensions go?

 

[Travis Munday]

I only found dimensions for the SOHC. I would expect the SOHC to be wider and taller given the wider and taller heads.

Too bad a V-8 will not fit in the 01-05 Sportracs...

I think the 30L X 29W X 30H for the 4.6 sounds more correct than 36L X 36W X 44H, or they never would have gotten it to fit in the regular explorer.
