Hey Dan, i have a question to ask ya! Do you prefer the 3.6 liter DI in this or the Vortec 4200 in the Envoys, Trailblazers, and Bravada's?

[mpgomatic]

@awada85 I've never thought about it, but I'd prefer a turbo-diesel over both. =)

[awada85]

@mpgomatic O alrite than.

[mpgomatic]

@awada85 Is the Vortec 4200 still in production?

[SRT92]

pffft id still rather the VORTEC 4200 (02-09) Trailblazer, Envoy, etc,.

[zachray263]

I hate the adds that pop up!

[NattDogg01]

This fully loaded LTZ costs as much as a base LS 4X4 Suburban. lol

I want to put one of these engines with the camaro ECU in a pontic fireo

[shalimardrwalker]

We have a Traverse and sometimes it hesitates to downshift

[BBTthetank]

@awada85 It wouldn't work regardless. The 4200 is an inline-6 not a V6, and this is a FWD platform, so the 4200 block would be too long to fit sideways. But your right, the 4200 is a good solid engine, and inline six's in general, have a butt-load of low end torque and great reliability.

crappy tranny

[banstaman]

What a lazy transmission.

@Motorfordtoyota thats what this is, same thing but the FWD creates loss of hp, it still has 270 lb ft torque

[sproutkitty]

Pretty quiet ride :)
