You forgot a major importance to many consumers of v8’s. The simplicity. Some of us don’t want a small displacement engine that’s being pushed to its limits with turbos and other complex components that are prone to failure. The sound is also important to me 😂
Agreed 100 % brother, that's why I chose the 5.0L Coyote V8 over the Ecoboost V6 in the F150 anyday mate.
Simplicity....except for cylinder deactivation.
From personal experience with a 6.2L that ate lifters n rods.....simplicity don't mean shit.
Now Ford has gone down that road....
Buy a Nissan Titan.....its the simplest v8 built.
@@rodjbosch are you sure about that? It's an overhead cam isn't it?
The Nissan Titan that is.
@@oneninerniner3427
Has no cylinder deactivation.....unlike every other v8 made.
Toyota didn't have it either....
Well said.
Cylinder deactivation would be a no sale.
I've owned 4 including current trucks.
Psst! Utilize the low range and it goes away. Also auto shut-off. Push the button lol!
Cheers!
Yes. No cylinder deactivation PLEASE
Cylinder deactivation was an issue with gm power on demand system. Newer systems don't have as much problems. My truck has 160k, I never bypass the cylinder deactivation
You see no mileage advantage with the cylinders deactivated.... It's so dumb and caused them to burn oil as along with the same amount of gas.
@@lonetnier2733 I respectfully disagree. If I turn off traction control, it turns off cylinder deactivation. My gas mileage almost immediately drops from 20-21ish to 17
lot of us will only own a v8 they dont have to work hard they really dont need a turbo / superchargers
Amen! 🙌
I agree 100% brother
Keep the pushrods. Simple, efficient, easy to modify, reliable, compact, capable of making plenty of power. Don't knock it because motor trend doesn't think it's cool.
As long as they do something with the lifter issues that are around in the 5.3 and the 6.2, more power to them.
They did. Kinda lol! ACDelco 88865595 every 5,000, premium ONLY (think CHEVRON), and walnut blasting around 200,000. Tidy. Same with 2.7 Turbo btw. Exactly.
Cheers!
Simpler solution... Stop using fucking 20 weight oil. The 4.3L ecotec3 is the same as the v8's only difference is it used 30 weight oils and no lifter failures. It's a hydraulic system, it needs good oil to function properly. The fact the oil changes are so stretched out means it thins and breaks down. That's the cause. If they just clearanced the engine for 30 weight oils they would solve over 90% of the failures.
Weirdly this,though almost irrelevant to me is the best news I've heard in a while. Carry on the legacy.
This is gonna be relevant to me in the year 2037, when I can afford a truck made in 2023 lol
@@kylegreen378 lol I heard that
Exactly right… so nice that they will hold onto the V8. Other brands are clearly moving away from that.
PUSHROOD 4 LIFE
The other 2 of the big 3 still offer v8s as well. It’s been time for gm to move on from the 5.3. Nobody is interested in the 2.7. The 6.2 and diesel engines are exclusive to specific packages of the vehicle you choose so it’s time to replace the bread and butter . Hopefully … it will not be plagued with issues like everything they have produced since 2007 has been .
At least Ford is still making the legendary 5.0L Coyote V8 for the Mustang as well as the F150.
I’m not a GM fan by any means but this is great news for the industry as a whole
Hopefully they get rid of the cylinder deactivation
Can you believe the first small block was designed so well that it was in production for 39-40 years? A hundred million of them ended up in anything that had wheels. Easy to modify and so simple, just hook up a couple wires and a fuel line and go. My first was a 283 and now I'm up to a 421 and love it. I still have a 283, 350 and a 400 all complete original engines and a couple powerglides on hand. Unfortunately I had a 327, a 4 speed and 4 powerglides stolen from a storage trailer a couple years ago. Sold to by drugs no doubt. I just hope they got used and not scrapped.
This is like the next wave of LS's going into trucks and SUVs, they're continuing to build on that LS nostalgia of being able to pull a engine out of a work truck and sticking it in an old school and make a ton of power, they're giving it to us again , That's smart for a lot of reasons.
Long live the V8 engine regardless the power output...you can't replace the sound and all round smoothness of a V8 no matter the brand...kudos to GM for sticking to the wonderful V8.
yes! gm isnt giving in. keep making those badass v8s.
The pushrod engine works well,not a big fan of the over head cam design, try timing a over head cam especially a double! Even fords knew big block went back to a single cam in the center,,,, hmmm must be a more desirable design.
You make a valid points
It's DEFINITELY not a more desirable design... The Coyote V8 has proven itself time and time again... A GM 5.3 isn't even in the same ballpark, 😂😂! Heavy (work) trucks appreciate a high torque low rpm engine, hence the 7.3 and new 6.8. If a chicken had hands it could assemble a GM pushrod engine but anyone with ANY mechanical ability can time a DOHC engine...
@@02autogt that has a lot more to do with how they designed the coyote than the fact its dohc. They were made as a performance engine, high flow, strong bottom end, the gm 5.3 was designed as a pickup engine. Pushrod engines are a smaller package with lower center of gravity too and i find it kind of odd you can use ls lifters in fords new 7.3
@@02autogt Ford Triton has proven itself too... at least until the first change of spark plugs ;)
@@02autogt - LOLOL … “If a chicken hands ….”
You don’t have much respect for the LS … Personally, I love ‘em …
The OHV V8 is far from dead. Ford invested millions into the godzilla 7.3 V8 in 2020.
The twin turbo v8 in my 22 bmw x5M competition is a total beast of a motor and makes great sound.
Give us the option to have an engine without the cylinder shutdown mode if we don't want it. I want all my pistons working .
I turn mine off everytime I start it and go somewhere.
I was told that the V8 torque is better than many 6 or 4 cylinder engines. In other words, the V8 doesn’t have to work as hard to produce torque.
I would like to see a big block option for the trucks...hell ford went back to pushrods for easier serviceability and better packaging and more working space.....which is a sigh of relief since Ford ohc engines are kinda iffy on reliability
I really injoy working on and driving my gen 1 sbc. The ls are nice and seem to jump price on swapped cars and trucks and are nuts with a turbo. No experience with LT but they seem to have a lot of potential. Be interested to see what the next one will be like.
Nobody wants a 4 cylinder turbo.
V8s last longer, sound better, and have a much higher resale value.
Electric vehicles will probably be in future garages, but they don't make sense yet.
Good news. Good video. Thanx for sharing
Rather have a push rod motor then a dual overhead cam. Hopefully it’s not direct injection.
make sure those lifters and push rods wont go boom
97 corvette got the LS1 v8. 99 silverado got the 5.3l derived from that 5.7L. Now some of you ain't gonna like what I have to say but if history tells us anything, the new truck V8 is going to derived from the all new corvette 5.5L over head cam V8.
BRING BACK BIG BLOCKS !!!
They should pair it with a manual trans like they did years ago on trucks.
Sorry bud, not gonna happen. Autos are a lot more efficient than manuals. As sad as it is.. we're not getting no more manuals.
@@lrecollet that's 🐂💩
I love my manual.
Less trouble then with an automatic too!
It would be a nice to modernize the 350. Or atleast sell the blocks for them
I’m a “Chevy truck guy” the cylinder deactivation sucks!!! I have a 2018 and I want to buy a new truck. I hope I can soon!
Yeah , long lives the V8, keep on doing it USA.
Love pushrod engines. So many advantages.
Not sure if it will be able to meet the required emissions now tho 🤔
I think it's safe to say the pushrod V8 that gm has been building meets the car guy's approval just about everywhere. For cost and performance they are nearly impossible to beat. The exact reason the original sbc was used in millions and millions of hand built hot rods to new purchases.
I've got a 2016 Silverado with a v6 does the job well I hope the keep it I enjoy the gas mileage it gets I'm sure thy got v8 s Makin way more power but this thing isn't that bad for a v6 it's putting out more than the old v8 ever did and way more cheaper on gas mileage
I recently traded in my 2010 f150 that had the trusty 4.6L V8. I loved it for all the reasons you'd want a smaller displacement V8 and its a shame more don't build them like that.
Did I hear any mention of emissions? I believe that emissions and fuel mileage are the main reasons for all the updates made to all vehicles
I wish they would make more of the 4.2liter blackwing twin turbo v8 that Cadillac made for only 1 year
Interesting news!
Give us a Colorado with the V8!
That's great to hear! Betting it's got push rods, 1 cold beer! )
It will be a pushrod. Much cheaper to build.
And much better design.
Better stick with push rod style engine it works
No is a 5.5 DOHC engine with 4 timing chain and cam phaser
@@mrhighwaythat’s for the corvette lol. They’re making a pushrod for the trucks
@@8__D they are not for they trucj will be a DOHC engine
Remember this. The new GM V8 will be under 300 Cubic inches. Something around the old school 283.
This is great news! Give me a fuel injected V8 anyday, screw a small displacement turbo engine!
Just think dependabilty. Like the 283,327, small blocks. DOHC them. Wow!!!!!
They need a good cheap dependable v8 that everyone can use! It will be a hit! Hopefully I can afford one!
Electric is not catching on
Infrastructure not there....too expensive
4 Cam like the Ford ???
Rumor of a longer cylinder sleeve right from the factory
My 6.2L GMC Sierra AT4 with a CAI, Magna Flow catback, and Pulsar LT is a lot of fun. 😎
I bet! The 6 2 is beast!
@@automotiveantics love the sound of the 6.2
All my customers who are commercial customers only want to buy a Chevy or a Ford V8 because it's more dependable, has more torque, pulls a heavier load, especially if they are pulling trailers!! No electric vehicle in the world will do what a V8 does for as long as it does for inexpensive as it can!!!!!
The Blueprint LS based 4 cylinder is the new sbc..
I bet they are going Atkinson cycle for improved fuel economy but also grunt when needed
I feel like we are moving backwards in the sense that a carbeurator still atomizes the fuel more efficiently than injectors.
I wonder if it's going to be pushrod?
Im not a GM guy, but I think it's good. I like my V-8s too. I bet they are going to go have to go smaller displacement tho, probably 5.0L or less for efficiency ratings.
wish they would keep making the camaro
Yeah. Really wish they would keep Camaro a few more years. Unless they bring out a Maverick competitor, nothing else from Chevy is of interest here.
Awesome 👌
Yes it's true you can get more power in a V6 and a 4-cylinder than a V8 however when you hook a Turbocharger up to a full sun
Inline 4 or V6 it don't last as long as a V8 so you got to think about the durability of it and not only that they push rod the design is much more efficient than a dual overhead cam which is much more complicated
Something to counter godzilla 🐲
put a V8 in the Colorado !
I hope they do better then what they have been 🤔
The last v8 was dropping push rods like crazy !
Never heard of that
GM is good at trucks period.
This is good to hear , Turbo engines don't have the life longevity that a NA engine does
I hope it is going into the express cargo van.
I really wish GM would up their transmission game, it's been constant stinker after stinker the 4L60 should have been discontinued in the late 90's the 6L90 was mleh at best probably chevs best transmission in awhile but had torque converter issues, the 8L90 I dont even need to talk about those issues and overheated and the 10L90 is having some issues as well. The last good trans Chevy made was the 4L80 and even then that was just a th400 with overdrive.
And that's exactly why it was great, but the drive ability in lighter vehicles wasn't as good as the 4l60, that's why it was as common as it was
Th 400 was a good trans..
They need to bring back the 4.3 V6! I love my 2019 Silverado!
The 4.8🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
@@gerardolopez5875 I have a friend who has a Tahoe with over 300 K on it. It has a 4.8!
I agree 💯
Some of us want less parts to have issues with!
Less parts doesn't help if it's GM's cams and lifters.
Why not make a naturally aspirated in-line 6? I’m mean Ford did with the nearly indestructible 300 and that engine was put into multiple applications including the old school UPS trucks
Gm did this some years ago with the Atlas engine. It was a good engine, producing around 300HP from 4.2 liters. But it was discontinued after a relatively short time. For this reason, I don’t see GM producing another straight six.
It’s about durability and reliability. The small black V-8 are not gonna be as reliable or last as long as the current V8. I’m starting to get the vibe of these car companies are completely disconnected to work consumers really want. Instead, they have the mentality of what we will just make it and they’ll have to buy it.
My silverado has a 2009 Gen 4 motor. Smooth. reliable and easy on the wallet. What's not to like?
It needs to be a pushrod motor with no variable valve timing and no chain it needs to be timing metal gears Crosscut
Cameros are done?
Yep bye bye
That's cool but I'll get really excited when they design a new RELIABLE transmission that shifts smooth. Their transmissions are their biggest liability.
Not a broke/fix scenario. Central cam engines are better. Better for consumers and more reliable.
Now if it's a Doc it could be somethig big !!!
Variable valve n ignition timing would be on the list too.
Probably nothing good though !!!
400 hp 400 tq and 25 mpg and i'll be very happy
Last time they moved away from pushrod in his we got the Northstar engine
The Northstar engines performed great until the head gaskets blew.
@@sking2173 I was a mechanic when they came out. They ALL blew their head, ALL THE TIME. terrible engine
@@imcrazyforwar - You’re right - and that’s what I said, too …
Long live the V8. Small displac ement or forced induction will meet all needs in SUV's, Trucks and performance cars. The Government regulations are killing the industry. Let the consumers decide what they want, not some political agenda.
When this day and age, why even have a camshaft why not work with Koning zag and make a free valve?
By the way...central cam pushrod V8s are still the most powerful engines in the world.
I won't own another GM until they can definitely prove they stopped peratexing engines together.
IVE HOPED TO SEE GM SHARE THE DOHC V8 OVER TO THE REST OF THE LINEUP.. WOULD LOVE TO SEE A Z06 ENGINED Z28 CAMARO.
Look what Ford did.. they went backwards with the Godzilla 7.3 pushrod V8. Hadn't produced a pushrod in decades. The small block pushrod has been it's simplicity, with less cost & easier maintenance. Easier payment to the consumer at an auto shop, when the engine has higher mileage, because of fewer parts to replace in regards to the pushrod V8. I am predicting a newer displacement than the 5.3 & 6.2.
GM is doing this because of those new emission standards supposedly coming, why pay emission fines when you can engineer a new better V8, we know it going in the full-size pickups and the Chevy and GMC full-size body-on-frame SUVs, and I've even heard of a rumor the next-gen Corvette C9 may get it, but not any Cadillac model, all future Cadillac models are supposedly are going electric, even though there's an upcoming XT4 coming, I guess Cadillac means new name models, it's all about GM protecting their profit machines until they can convince their buyers to make the switch from ICE to EVs, ICE models, especially V8 ones have a good 3 to 5 left hopefully, anyway, it does make one wonder, could Chevy get their hand on the Cadillac CT6 (it is still offered in the Chinese market) Omega platform and drop that new-gen V8 and call it Impala, think about it, a base with 500+ hp Impala (RWD) and a hybrid V8 Impala SS (AWD) with 650+ hp, for the life of me, this is GM's coup de grâce for the V8, you kind of figured GM would do this, it makes sense, the interesting thing is, it will supposedly offer better performance vs the competition, ok, big words, the HO 3.0 I6 turbo Hurricane engine in the Jeep a Grand Wagoneer is almost as quick as the Cadillac Escalade V-Series, just saying, which means GM next-gen OHV V8 max performance engine would have to run to 60 in under 5 seconds, as for EVs, they could easily increase the towing range and charging speeds (now, if they wanted to), it almost feels like they're holding back, for some reason (profitable), those full-size EV pickups and SUVs battery pack aren't small or cheap, just saying
It’s all about long range towing.
Show me a 400 plus hp 4 cylinder in a production car and let’s see how long it lasts a long time under high load and I’ll trade in a v8 for it… maybe. Most of the engines going he distance are truck engines with extra cylinders and de powered for such consistent results long term
Good! Makes sense!
Electric isn't what I want.
Or a turbo 6 or 4 cylinder.
Why not!
Having owned an Eco Boost Ford 150 and GM 6.0 trucks I don't see how these manufacturers can move away from V-8s. When I put a trailer behind my F150 and hit the interstate, it was third gear and 3000 or 4000 RPM to maintain speed. The 6.0 did better, but there was still a lot of gear changing. My best tow truck is a 2000 GMC with a 7.4, put 10,000 pounds on a trailer and it just pulls it, no drama and no excessive gear changing. The 7.4 is rated 95 to 105 horsepower less than the Ford or GM trucks. Where the 7.4 shines is the 450 ft/lb of torque!
I call BS on this. First I will say, I am not a Ford “Fanboy”, but a truck enthusiast. Came from a 6.0 with the 6 speed in a 2016 and went to and now drive a 3.5 EcoBoost with the 10 speed. The Ecoboost rocks what the Chevy had - 470 ft-lb of torque in my EcoBoost. Ecoboost has 3.55 gearing, and my HD had 4.10s. My HD pulled good, but the F150 pulls better. There is no way a 2000 454 is pulling as good as either. Just my take, I’ll call BS on your comment.
Looking forward to this new v8 from Chevy. Let’s hope they don’t pull the cylinder deactivation, and use stronger internal components. Maybe some forged internals?
@@bigf1502 My EcoBoost was a 2013. They are better now. I speak only of my experience. You had a different experience, good for you. You can scream BS, BS all day long, you don't change anything and you don't change my mind.
Torque monster
I call BS,I drive a 3.5 Ecoboost, they have loads of power for towing.Stop spreading nonsense comments about Ecoboost being crap for towing
@@bigf1502 well said
Will be moving over to Chevy. Love the sound of the v8
Another grenade to add to the line up 😂 wonder if it’ll make it past the first oil change
I love the sound of gas and being able to work on my cars and trucks so when they all go to batteries I'll just stop driving any new one I'll just have to keep the last gas truck I have running for every e EV are fast but they have no soul
New V8 is probably gonna be plugged with 1000 more sensors
I thought GM was all in on all electrics.
They upgraded version of Lt5 direct injection with boost and then the Vette new engine they're supposed to phase out Ls series but they had a few good engines for work trucks and etc but they never put them in anything smart
This is the 6.6 gas engine still a push rod motor still more dependable then any ford double overhead cam
Pushrods are the reason chevy truck have so much low end torque
New V8...the words make me smile. I cut my teeth on V8 sounds and torque in pickup trucks. I was a teen in the 80s and it just wasn't cool in my neck of the if it wasn't V8 powered!
As long as it had Direct Injection
It should make a lot of power
Power and simplicity and reliability. Gas turbos seldom make 300 k TROUBLE FREE. IF GM PUTS 150000 WARRANTY ON THEIR MOTORS THEN BUY ONE, SAME GOES FOR FORD AND CHRYSLER .
Ls is a durable engine don’t ruin it
