The Chevrolet small-block engine is a series of gasoline-powered, V-8 automobile engines, produced by the Chevrolet division of General Motors between 1954 and 2003, using the same basic engine block. Referred to as a "small-block" for its size relative to the physically much larger Chevrolet big-block engines, the small block family spanned from 262 cu in (4.3 L) to 400 cu in (6.6 L) in displacement. Engineer Ed Cole is credited with leading the design for this engine. The engine block and cylinder heads were cast at Saginaw Metal Casting Operations in Saginaw, Michigan.

  • The Chevrolet small-block engine is a series of gasoline-powered, V-8 automobile engines, produced by the Chevrolet division of General Motors between 1954 and 2003, using the same basic engine block. Referred to as a "small-block" for its size relative to the physically much larger Chevrolet big-block engines, the small block family spanned from 262 cu in (4.3 L) to 400 cu in (6.6 L) in displacement. Engineer Ed Cole is credited with leading the design for this engine. The engine block and cylinder heads were cast at Saginaw Metal Casting Operations in Saginaw, Michigan. Generation I and Generation II LT engines are distinct from subsequent LS-based small-block engines. The Generation II engine is largely an improved version of the Generation I, having many interchangeable parts and dimensions. Later generation engines have only the rod bearings, transmission-to-block bolt pattern and bore spacing in common with the Generation I and II engines. Production of the original small-block began in late 1954 for the 1955 model year, with a displacement of 265 cu in (4.3 L), growing over time to 400 cu in (6.6 L) by 1970. Among the intermediate displacements were the 283 cu in (4.6 L), 327 cu in (5.4 L), and numerous 350 cu in (5.7 L) versions. Introduced as a performance engine in 1967, the 350 went on to be employed in both high- and low-output variants across the entire Chevrolet product line. Although all of Chevrolet's siblings of the period (Buick, Cadillac, Oldsmobile, Pontiac, and Holden) designed their own V8s, it was the Chevrolet 305 and 350 cu in (5.0 and 5.7 L) small-block that became the GM corporate standard. Over the years, every GM division in America, except Saturn and Geo, used it and its descendants in their vehicles. Finally superseded by the Generation III LS in 1997 and discontinued in 2003, the engine is still made by a GM subsidiary in Springfield, MO as a crate engine for replacement and hot rodding purposes. In all, over 100,000,000 small-blocks have been built in carbureted and fuel injected forms since 1955 as of November 29, 2011. The small-block family line was honored as one of the 10 Best Engines of the 20th Century by automotive magazine Ward's AutoWorld. In February 2008 a Wisconsin businessman reported that his 1991 Chevrolet C1500 pickup had logged over 1 million miles without any major repairs to its small block V8 engine. (Source: The Flint Journal, February 17, 2008). All Chevrolet small-block engines share the same firing order that is 1-8-4-3-6-5-7-2. (en)
  • Le small-block Chevrolet est une famille de moteurs V8 construits par General Motors de 1955 à 1998. Le premier V8 de cette famille est un 4,3 L conçu pour la Corvette. Le moteur small-block sera remplacé dans les années 1990 par les V8 LT, puis LS. Le moteur est toujours construit sous forme de « crate engine » (moteur de remplacement prêt à installer). C'est le moteur ayant eu la plus longue longévité avec le V8 Rolls-Royce. Tous les moteurs sont à soupapes en tête, avec deux soupapes par cylindre. D'abord équipés de carburateurs, ils connaitront l'injection mécanique puis électronique. (fr)
  • Il nome Chevrolet Small-Block identifica una vasta famiglia di motori endotermici prodotti dal 1955 ad oggi dalla Casa automobilistica statunitense Chevrolet.

  • Chevrolet small-block är en typ av (jämförelsevis) små V8-motorer tillverkade av Chevrolet. Samtliga motorer är bensindrivna toppventilmotorer med centralt placerad kamaxel. Den första motorn lanserades 1955. Flera motorer med olika slagvolym har tillverkats, bland annat 262, 265, 283, 302, 305, 307, 327 350, och 400 kubiktum. Inom rätt produktionsår för motorerna kunde man få sin Chevrolet utrustat med i stort sett vilken motor man ville. Motorerna var inte bundna till särskilda modeller utan kunde beställas som så kallad "option" (tillval) precis som med dagens bilar. (sv)
  • 雪佛蘭小缸體引擎(Chevrolet Small-block Engine)是由通用汽車生產主要用於雪佛蘭型汽車的一系列V8引擎。得名於其相對較小的汽缸本體。在同時期雪佛蘭亦有“”引擎(Chevrolet Big-block Engine)。雖然“大缸體”引擎中排氣量最小的種類比小缸體中排氣量最大的來的小,但總體上講小缸體引擎排氣量在6.6升(400立方英吋)以內,體積小,重量輕。當前LT系列引擎和LS系列引擎可以看作是第二代和第三/四代小缸體,而LT/EcoTech3則為第五代衍生產品。但一般說的“小缸體”(Small-block)特指從1955年到2003年生產的第一代小缸體引擎。該引擎由通用工程師艾德·科爾(Ed Cole)主持開發,科爾也因此而被提升為通用公司首席執行官。 小缸體引擎於1954年秋季投入生產,裝備次年款的車型。最初排氣量為4.3升(265立方英尺),到1970年,排氣量最大已經達到6.6升(400立方英吋)。隨著科技的發展小缸體引擎也在做逐步的技術改進,如用燃油噴射取代化油器,其中生產最久的為5.7升(350立方英吋)引擎,從1967年一直到2003年小缸體全部停產,廣泛用於各種不同類型的車輛,成為了通用汽車標準V8引擎。除了低端的土星汽車以外,5.7升小缸體裝備了通用公司旗下全部品牌的汽車和卡車。 1990年代通用逐步推出的小缸體的第二代LT和第三代LS系列引擎,最終在2003年完全停產。但目前通用仍在墨西哥的工廠少量生產第一代小缸體引擎,單獨出售用於和直線競速賽等目的。據統計總產量超過一億台(2009年11月統計)。在某種程度上,目前在產的LT和LS系列引擎仍然具備不少最初小缸體引擎的特徵。 小缸體曾數次華德十大最佳汽車引擎上榜。 (zh)
