VEGE Remanufactured DCT9 6.0L 364ci High Output Long Block Engine

Description

High tensile gray iron anchors the VEGE DCT9 High Output Long Block Engine. This 6.0L 364ci V8 iron beast delivers 335HP for high tonnage commercial long block repower requirements. Installers must verify crankshaft reluctor ring tooth count on the rear counterweight before installing crank sensors because 24X and 58X electronic sensors are incompatible.

Solid ASTM A48 Class 35 gray iron lines the deep skirt block on this VEGE remanufactured long block. A micro-polished nodular iron crankshaft spins inside six-bolt cross-bolted main bearing caps for maximum structural integrity. The 12V starter system draws 190A during winter cold starts. Net weight reads 515 lbs dry within physical dimensions of 28in length by 25in width by 28in height holding 6.0 quarts oil capacity.

Key Features of VEGE DCT9

Fleet maintenance directors buy VEGE DCT9 High Output Long Block Engine packages to avoid extended chassis downtime during an industrial engine rebuild. Quality control technicians inspect cylinder deck surfaces using profilometers to confirm low Ra roughness values.

• Large 364ci displacement supplies exceptional pulling force across mountainous haul routes.
• Six-bolt cross-bolted main bearing caps eliminate bottom end flex under heavy acceleration.
• Stellite faced exhaust valves stop seat recession under severe continuous towing duty.
• Tri-metal copper lead rod bearings support 0.0016in oil clearances under continuous highway load cycles.
• The DCT9 cylinder head assembly incorporates heavy duty valve springs to prevent valve bounce.
• Multi layer steel head gaskets eliminate combustion gas blow by between paired cylinder bores.
• Precision ground pistons include anti-friction skirts to minimize bore friction under high loads.

Dyno Bench Output Standards

Shop testing subjects the DCT9 long block engine to continuous dyno absorption cycles. The test cell registers 335 continuous BHP with 380 ft-lbs shaft torque at 3,400 RPM. Sump oil temperature reads 195°F with oil pressure steady at 58 PSI. Combustion chambers hold 188 PSI compression with cylinder variation constrained below 3%. Crankshaft main journal runout measures 0.0003in TIR while exhaust temperatures peak safely at 1,360°F.

Shop Handling Routine Servicing

Electronic throttle actuators or mechanical linkage inputs move with 4.5 lbs applied tension. Do not install this cast iron Gen III or IV V8 into front wheel drive passenger cars or light transverse engine bays.

• Replace motor oil and install new heavy duty filter canisters every 4,000 miles.
• Inspect hydraulic roller lifter action and pushrods every 40,000 operating miles.
• Verify cylinder head bolt clamp loads during scheduled major fleet overhauls.

Warranty Assurances Crate Inventory

Every engine matches the verified VEGE assembly standard to assure complete rebuild uniformity. Fleet buyers receive a 3-Year or 100,000-mile limited replacement parts warranty. The wood pallet crate holds the assembled long block engine, oil pan, front timing casing, valve covers, oil pump pickup tube, and verified build inspection logs.
