VEGE Remanufactured VC11 5.7L 350ci High Output Long Block Engine

Description

Stop severe fleet downtime with the VEGE VC11 High Output Long Block Engine. This 5.7L 350ci V8 workhorse delivers 250HP for severe duty commercial long block repower needs. Technicians must check intake manifold bolt angles before final torquing because center intake bolts use different entry angles across early and late heads.

ASTM A48 Class 35 gray iron lines the engine block of this dependable VEGE remanufactured long block. A heavy nodular iron crankshaft spins in precision honed four bolt main bearing saddles for exceptional structural strength. Cranking pulls 185A across 12V starter circuits. The iron assembly weighs 505 lbs dry inside an engine stance of 29in length by 26in width by 27in height holding 5.0 quarts oil.

Key Features of VEGE VC11

Shop owners buy VEGE VC11 High Output Long Block Engine packages to eliminate workshop delays during an industrial engine rebuild. Precision broached cylinder head mating surfaces stop head gasket failure under persistent thermal cycles.

• Classic 350ci displacement provides dependable torque multiplication across flatbed haul cycles.
• Four-bolt main bearing journals secure the lower end against high RPM crankshaft walk.
• Austenitic stainless steel valves maintain seating face integrity past 1,420°F combustion peaks.
• Copper lead bearings maintain 0.0016in oil clearances to support hydrodynamic boundary lubrication.
• The VC11 long block engine utilizes a flat tappet hydraulic camshaft profile for reliable valve timing.
• Precision ground pistons include anti-friction skirts to minimize bore friction under high loads.
• One-piece fluoroelastomer rear main seals stop oil leaks around the rear crankshaft flange.

Dynamic Dyno Load Evaluation

Every VC11 commercial core undergoes exhaustive dyno testing prior to shipment packaging. Dynamometer figures confirm 250 continuous BHP and 330 ft-lbs torque output at 3,000 RPM. Main oil gallery pressure reads 56 PSI at 190°F operating temperature. Exhaust gas temperatures stabilize safely at 1,340°F. Individual cylinder compression delivers 180 PSI with under 4% variance while crank runout measures 0.0003in TIR.

Field Usability Operator Rules

Throttle shaft bellcrank mechanisms actuate smoothly with 5 lbs applied pulling force. Do not install this center-bolt valve cover small block engine into chassis requiring mechanical fuel pumps without verifying block fuel pump rod provisions.

• Perform engine oil and lube filter service intervals every 3,000 miles or 125 run hours.
• Check hydraulic valve lifter preload every 30,000 miles adjusting rocker nuts to spec.
• Verify cylinder head bolt torque to 65 ft-lbs following initial break in heat cycles.

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.
