Specs for the V8-6-4 Block
The displacement is a 6.0-liter design although offers about 6.3 in mathematical terms. GM tried its best to help its Cadillac brand by creating an upgraded block from the L61 in 1980. The secret behind the 8-6-4 system was not just the smaller 368 cubic inch displacement. The top speed of 140 horsepower did contribute to the overall speed control effect that was a first on this version.
The concept of the V8-6-4 was to utilize a better fuel injection system. By allowing acceleration with all 8 cylinders, the full power level was achieved until an average speed was reached. Before the motor was warmed up to an intermediate speed, a decrease to a 6-cylinder power level was achieved. When the engine reached a cruising speed level, a 4-cylinder operation was put into effect. This system was a way to conserve fuel without making the displacement smaller.
6.0-Liter Versus 4.1-Liter V8
While the 8-6-4 was only produced for a 12-month period, there were enough of the vehicles featuring this block sold to create demand for classic motor vehicle parts. GM did downgrade the displacement for all later models to a 4.1-liter edition.
