& Components

 

GM Performance Parts
Product # 10051141 Bow Tie Aluminum Block
This heavy-duty aluminum block is 47 pounds lighter than a
production rear-wheel-drive cast iron block. It has extra-thick
cylinder walls with dry nodular iron sleeves. The head bolt bosses
are reinforced to improve head gasket sealing. This block has
wider main bearing bulkheads than a production cylinder case;
four-bolt caps are installed on the two intermediate main bearings.
These billet steel main caps have splayed outer bolts that provide
additional bearing support. The aluminum Bow Tie V6/60º block
features a revised lubrication system. The "priority main feed" oiling
is similar to a Chevrolet small-block V8, with three oil galleries
above the camshaft; production V6/60º blocks have only two oil
galleries. Oil is routed directly to the main bearings in a
Bow Tie block to ensure proper lubrication at high rpm.
The main bearing saddles are grooved to increase the flow of oil
to the crankshaft journals through additional feed holes drilled in
the upper bearing inserts. Block weight is 59 lbs.
