VEGE Remanufactured 617C 1.8L 1839cc Premium Grade Long Block Engine

Description

Restore sustained valvetrain efficiency with the VEGE 617C Premium Grade Long Block Engine. This 1.8L 1839cc 4-Cylinder powertrain generates 110HP for immediate commercial long block repower tasks. Machinists must verify coolant bypass hose barb outer diameter on the water neck before final torquing into vehicle engine bays.

Precision ASTM A48 Class 35 gray iron lines the cylinder block of this VEGE remanufactured long block. Induction hardened journal fillets reinforce the forged steel crankshaft against cyclic vibration. Starter draw pulls 160A on standard 12V automotive battery circuits. Total dry weight reads 268 lbs with exterior frame dimensions of 23in length by 21in width by 22in height with 4.1 quarts sump volume.

Key Features of VEGE 617C

Service managers buy VEGE 617C Premium Grade Long Block Engine packages to eliminate recurring downtime during an industrial engine rebuild. Every internal friction surface matches original factory running tolerances.

• Displacement measures 1839cc to provide dependable torque delivery across municipal carrier routes.
• SOHC 8-Valve cylinder head features diamond machined flat deck surfaces within 0.0003in true flat.
• Stellite faced exhaust valves stop seat recession under heavy commercial exhaust gas heat.
• Aluminum alloy hypereutectic pistons resist scuffing across cold cold start warm up periods.
• The 617C cylinder head assembly incorporates high tensile valve springs to suppress high RPM float.
• Full flow oil galleries direct pressurized lubricant straight to all five main crankshaft journals.
• Heavy gauge steel oil pans resist puncture damage from road gravel impact during operation.

Dyno Limits Mechanical Tolerances

Shop testing subjects the 617C long block engine to continuous dyno absorption cycles. The test cell registers 110 continuous BHP with 112 ft-lbs shaft torque at 3,400 RPM. Sump oil temperature reads 195°F with oil pressure steady at 55 PSI. Combustion chambers hold 185 PSI compression with cylinder variation constrained below 4%. Crankshaft main journal runout measures 0.0002in TIR while exhaust temperatures peak safely at 1,340°F.

Installation Rules Maintenance Guidelines

Mechanical linkage inputs require 5 lbs force for smooth rack motion. Do not install this naturally aspirated unit into commercial platforms that employ forced induction turbochargers without remapping fuel maps.

• Perform fluid and spin-on filter changes at strict 3,500-mile or 120 run hours service marks.
• Verify solid valvetrain clearances cold setting intake to 0.008in and exhaust to 0.010in.
• Verify cylinder head bolt torque at 60 ft-lbs following initial thermal cycling procedures.

Commercial Warranty Delivery Manifest

Every engine matches the verified VEGE assembly standard for total rebuild uniformity. Your purchase carries a 3-Year or 100,000-mile limited replacement parts warranty. The wood pallet crate contains the complete long block engine, oil pan, valve cover, timing belt cover, internal oil pump pickup tube, and signed dimensional sign-off documentation.
