Installation: Apply liquid (Teflon Type) sealant to
valve-to-block threads (Fig. 16). Tighten assembly to
55 N Im (40 ft. lbs.).
FILTER
CAUTION: When servicing the oil filter (Fig. 16)
avoid deforming the filter can by installing the re-
move/install tool band strap against the can-to-base
lockseam. The lockseam joining the can to the base
is reinforced by the base plate.
(1) Turn counter clockwise to remove.
(2) To install, lubricate new filter gasket. Check
filter mounting surface. The surface must be smooth,
flat and free of debris or old pieces of rubber. Screw
filter on until gasket contacts base. Tighten to 3/4 to
1 turn.

GENERAL INFORMATION
ENGINE IDENTIFICATION NUMBER OR CODE
The engine identification number is located on the
rear of the cylinder block just below the cylinder
head (Fig. 1). BLOCK: The cylinder block is a light weight de-
sign created by reducing thickness in many parts
and a short 10 mm (3/8 inch) block skirt. High rigid-
ity is provided with ribs cast in the outer wall, a full
length water jacket, and a monoblock or beam type, main bearing cap. This single unit four bearing cap
is designed to control vibration of the cylinder block
partition walls.
CRANKSHAFT: A six throw, five weight crank-
shaft is supported by four main bearings with num-
ber three being the thrust bearing. The six separate
connecting rod throws pins reduce torque fluctua-
tions while a torsional vibration damper is used to
control torsion caused vibration of the crankshaft.
Rubber lipped seals are used at front and rear. The
front seal is retained in the oil pump case and the
rear is retained in a block-mounted housing.

PISTONS: Are aluminum alloy with a steel strut,
short height, and thin wall so as to be autothermic
and light weight. The piston head with valve re-
cesses, in combination with the cylinder head, forms
a compact spherical head with clearance for total
valve lift with pistons at top dead center. The piston
skirt, top and second ring lands are finished to a ta-
pered roughness for oil retention and high resistance
to scuffing. Piston pins, press-fitted into place, join
the pistons to the connecting rods. CYLINDER HEAD: The alloy cylinder heads fea- ture cross-flow type intake and exhaust ports. Valve
guides and inserts are hardened cast iron. Valves of
heat resistance steel are arranged i
n a V with each
camshaft on center. To improve combustion speed the
chambers are a compact spherical design with a
squish area of approximately 30 percent of the piston
top area. The cylinder heads are common to either
cylinder bank by reversing the direction of installa-
tion. CAMSHAFTS: Two overhead camshafts provide
valve actuation, one front (radiator side of cylinder
bank) and one rear. The front camshaft is provided
with a distributor drive and is longer. Both cam-
shafts are supported by four bearing journals, thrust
for the front camshaft is taken at journal two and
the rear at journal three. Front and rear camshaft
driving sprockets are interchangeable. The sprockets
and the engine water pump are driven by a single
notched timing belt. ROCKER ARM SHAFTS: The shafts are retained
by the camshaft bearing journal caps. Four shafts are
used, one for each intake and exhaust rocker arm as-
sembly on each cylinder head. The hollow shafts pro-
vide a duct for lubricating oil flow from the cylinder
head to the valve mechanisms. ROCKER ARMS: Are of light weight die-cast
with roller type follower operating against the cam
shaft. The valve actuating end of the rocker arms are
machined to retain hydraulic lash adjusters, elimi-
nating valve lash adjustment. VALVES: Are made of heat resistant steel and are
further treated to resist heat. VALVE SPRINGS: Are especially designed to be
short. The valve spring wire cross-section is oval

shaped and provides the same spring tension as
longer springs. Valve spring retainers, locks and
seals are conventional.INTAKE MANIFOLD: The aluminum alloy man-
ifold is a cross type with long runners to improve in-
ertia. The runners, attaching below at the cylinder
head, also attach above and support an air plenum.
The air plenum chamber absorbs air pulsations cre-
ated during the suction phase of each cylinder. EXHAUST MANIFOLDS: Both manifolds are a
log style made of ductile cast iron. Exhaust gasses,
collected from the front cylinder bank, leave the
front manifold through an end outlet and are fed
through an upper crossover tube to the rear mani-
fold. The collected exhaust from both manifolds are
combined, and exit to the exhaust pipe through an
articulated joint. ENGINE LUBRICATION: System is a full flow
filtration, pressure feed type. The oil pump is
mounted in the chaincase cover. The pump inner ro-
tor is driven by the crankshaft. The engine oil pan
contains a baffle plate to control oil level fluctuation
during engine operation.ENGINE MOUNTS
