VEGE Remanufactured 849C 2.7L 2694cc High Output Long Block Engine

Description

Exhaust valve lash tightening leading to burnt valve faces sidelines municipal utility pickups. The VEGE 849C High Output Long Block Engine eliminates cylinder misfire delays during commercial long block repower schedules. This 2.7L 2694cc 4-Cylinder platform makes 150HP. Technicians must check balance shaft drive gear mesh timing marks prior to timing chain cover installation.

Robust ASTM A48 Class 35 iron constitutes the tall-deck four-cylinder block casting. Our VEGE engine core utilizes twin gear-driven balance shafts, forged steel connecting rods, and a forged steel crankshaft. Starter draw measures 155A at 12V. Dry weight is 365 lbs, oil capacity spans 5.8 quarts, and mounting stance spans 23in length, 22in width, 28in height.

Key Features of VEGE 849C

Fleet mechanics buy VEGE 849C industrial engine rebuild engines for extreme delivery truck duty cycles. Dual balance shafts cancel internal secondary vibration to enhance component durability.

• Cylinder bore machined to 3.740in maintains tight compression containment under continuous hauling.
• Crankshaft stroke sized to 3.740in produces exceptional square-bore torque characteristics.
• Dual internal balance shafts cancel four-cylinder secondary harmonic vibrations at road speeds.
• Stellite faced exhaust valves stop seat recession when operating on dry commercial fuels.
• Double roller timing chain set prevents cam timing lag under sustained high load.
• The 849C commercial core fits four-wheel drive and rear-wheel drive commercial pickup chassis.
• High volume oil pump feeds pressurized lubricant to bottom end bearings during idle.

Dyno Test Proofing Metrics

Live dynamometer diagnostics test each 849C long block engine before final crate sealing. Bench readouts verify 150 BHP and 177 ft-lbs torque output at 3400 RPM continuous load. Oil gallery pressure maintains 52 PSI at 190°F oil sump temperature. Exhaust gas probes show 1100°F EGT across header branches. Cylinder compression balances out at 180 PSI across all four chambers. Crankshaft journal runout records below 0.0002in TIR limit under dynamic bench resistance.

Chassis Installation Limits Criteria

Throttle return spring requires 5 lbs pull force for positive mechanical stop contact. Never install this tall four-cylinder iron engine into transverse front-wheel drive passenger cars or lightweight stationary generator equipment.

• Evacuate initial break-in engine oil and swap oil filter cartridge after 500 initial miles.
• Adjust mechanical valve lash shims to 0.008in intake and 0.012in exhaust cold.
• Torque cylinder head bolts in progressive circular sequence to finish at 58 ft-lbs.
