1975 Buick Skyhawk, Skylark & Century original vintage advertisement.
DESCRIPTION:
Introducing a six-cylinder with… well, guts.
Everybody has a pretty stock idea of the American six-cylinder engine. Economical. Tough as an anvil. And practical to a fault. Something Aunt Harriet could feel right at home with.
Our new six is different: lt’s a vee-six.
Something quite different from an L-head,
or in-line, or “straight” six.
As you volumetric efficiency fans know, placing the cylinders in a vee produces a shorter, more compact arrangement. Design-wise, it’s sort of like the difference between an open hand and a clenched fist. It means the V-6 crankshaft can be nice and short. And that the V-6 block can be compact and lightweight.
The end result is a 2-barrel, 3.8 liter six with very respectable horsepower-per-cubic inch figures. And a torque curve that comes on at relatively low engine speed.
Ah, but we’ve lapsed into design esoterica. Actually there are a lot of very real, untheoretical facts about our V-6 that we think you’ll like.
The first is that this is a bonafide Buick engine. As such, it shares a great many components with Buick V-8s.
As a matter of fact, the pistons, rings, wrist pins, rod bearings, timing gear and so forth, are identical to those used on our hefty 5.7 liter V-8. Heck, even the valves are nickel-plated, per all Buick V-8s.
Yet, because there are 25 percent fewer pistons and fewer moving parts in total, the V-6 weighs a full 170 pounds less than its V-8 brother.
It’s a remarkably free-spirited little engine, this Buick V-6.
And it’s standard in Buick Skyhawk, Skylark and Century.
BUICK - Dedicated to the Free Spirit in just about everyone.
