VEGE Remanufactured DCTP 5.7L 350ci Multi Purpose Long Block Engine

Description

Halt recurring fleet downtime with the VEGE DCTP Long Block Engine, built for commercial long block repower projects in multipurpose utility chassis. This 5.7L 350 cid small block V8 produces 210HP at 4,000 RPM. Technicians must check intake manifold bolt patterns because center intake bolts angle at 72° on throttle body injection cylinder heads.

Solid ASTM A48 Class 30 gray iron forms the 2-bolt or 4-bolt main engine casting. A precision ground cast iron crankshaft pairs with forged steel connecting rods inside this VEGE engine core. Starter draw measures 165A on standard 12V shop circuits. Dry weight scales at 465 lbs with dimensions measuring 28in length by 25in width by 27in height. Sump holds 5.0 quarts.

Key Features of VEGE DCTP

Fleet maintenance shops buy VEGE DCTP Long Block Engine packages to avoid machine shop queues during an industrial engine rebuild turnaround. Remanufacturing operations install new hydraulic flat tappet camshafts and lifters to ensure smooth valve actuation under continuous use.

• Cast iron cylinder heads optimize swirl chamber dynamics for complete throttle body fuel mixture burn.
• A flat tappet hydraulic camshaft profile maintains strong low end torque across stop and go routes.
• Hypereutectic aluminum pistons resist thermal ring pinching inside diamond honed cylinder walls.
• The DCTP commercial core maintains 0.0016in rod bearing oil clearances under heavy dynamometer loads.
• A heavy duty single roller timing set prevents cam timing retard under heavy towing loads.
• Cast iron main caps lock crankshaft journals into the deep block cradle.
• Multi layer steel head gaskets clamp down to eliminate combustion bore leakage.

Dynamometer Bench Parameters Pressure Benchmarks

Dynamometer runs record 210HP at 4,000 RPM alongside 300 ft-lbs torque at 2,800 RPM for this DCTP long block engine. Pressure sensors track 50 PSI oil gallery pressure at 2,000 RPM while maintaining 195°F coolant operating temperature. Combustion chamber compression balances at 175 PSI across all eight cylinders within 4% variance. Crankshaft dial indicators confirm 0.0002in TIR total runout. Exhaust manifold pyrometers measure 1,210°F under steady brake load testing.

Field Usability Scheduled Maintenance Directives

Mechanical throttle cable connections require 4 lbs pull force across the bellcrank pivot travel. Fleet mechanics must avoid this commercial replacement engine for conversions lacking factory electronic spark timing distributors or vehicles with undersized single core radiators.

• Evacuate initial run break in oil after 500 miles or 30 fleet hours then refill with 10W-30 motor oil.
• Inspect throttle body injection base gaskets for vacuum leaks before final operational sign off.
• Check cylinder head bolts in three progressive stages reaching 65 ft-lbs final torque spec.

Crate Manifest Verified Warranty Protection

Backed by the VEGE build standard, this package includes a 3-Year or 100,000-mile limited replacement warranty. The wooden shipping container holds the remanufactured long block core, oil pan, timing cover, valve covers, oil pump pickup tube, plus certified factory inspection test sheets.
