 Updating GM’s Quad 4 Engine, Doug Anderson, Automotive Rebuilder, April 2000
The notches on the reluctor wheel were located at 0° when the engine was introduced in ’87, but by late ’88 or model year ’89, depending on whom you talk to, the notches on the reluctor wheel were advanced by 15° even though the casting number on the crank stayed the same.
GM had problems with excessive oil pressure caused by the relief valve sticking in the bore, so the original pump was superseded with a new version that had improved clearance for the relief valve.
The GM microfiche lists them both as ’87 and "first design ’88", but some rebuilders say they were used all the way through ’88 while others believe that they were installed on some early ’89s.

Engine oil from the pump travels through the filter into a 1/2-inch main gallery above the camshaft and then through a hole to the backside of the rear cam bearing.
The engine block is formed to contain a specific number of cylinders and pistons, retain the crankshaft, and camshaft (except for overhead cam motors), lubrication system, water cooling passages, and mounting for cylinder heads and auxiliaries such as the starter, fuel pump, and accessory brackets.
An engine such as a Chevrolet 350 or 454 is made into a V shape with the same number of cylinders arranged in line on both banks.

 GM High Feature engine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In May 2006, GM unveiled a new version of this engine that featured a direct injection system, which GM claims will have 15% greater power, 8% greater torque, and 3% better fuel economy than the current port-injected version.
Although GM did not give specific output figures, a 15% increase in power and 8% increase in torque over the highest-output version of the current model would allow it to generate over 300 horsepower and 270 ft·lbf of torque.
Although GM has not officially announced a launch vehicle for this engine, it is widely expected to debut in the second-generation Cadillac CTS.

 GM Exhaust Manifold - Canyon Reg Sierra 2500 Sierra 3500 Sierra 1500 Canyon Crew - Walker Flownaster
Your GM exhaust manifold is a component of the exhaust system, along with the exhaust pipes, muffler, and the catalytic converter.
The exhaust system works as an assembly that handles the release of the exhaust gases, recycling and transforming them through the catalytic converter to less hazardous fumes which are emitted in the environment and mix with the air that we breathe.
Your GM exhaust manifold is very important in the efficiency of your engine and of your exhaust system.

 AutoZine Technical School - Engine
It is primarily used to reduce turbo lag at low engine speed, but it is also used to introduce EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirulation) to reduce emission in diesel engines.
This problem is especially serious to modern diesel engines, because they tend to use big turbo to compensate for their lack of efficiency.
That means the engine becomes lazy to rev (and to thrill you), but at any time you have a lot of torque to access, without needing to change gears frequently.

 Express 3500 Check engine light?
Here is your answer: you have an engine mis-fire condition due to a damaged distributor rotor/cap, which was damaged due to a plugged vent screen in the distributor.
My GM dealer fixed this problem the first time by replacing the cap and rotor, but he did not perform the technical service bulletins (TSB) to remove the vent screen, so the problem has occurred again.
GM bulletins are intended for use by professional technicians, NOT a "do-it-yourselfer".

GM's zone service representative disputed the claim under the assumption that a recently installed Gale Banks Engineering exhaust brake assembly was the cause.
While Gale Banks Engineering was satisfied with this, GM's legal representatives, claiming they were unprepared, left the table and later notified the owner they would schedule time for their own engineer to inspect the engine.
GM specialists never followed through with the inspection, but did discuss the failure with the engineer who delivered the report on behalf of the owner.

Had GM elected to apply DOD technology to performance vehicles such as the Corvette, GTO or a future Camaro, there would be far less pressure from corporate average fuel economy (CAFE) to import sub-compacts from outside GM as is the case now.
All corporate politics aside, the engineers at GM Powertrain have designed yet another mechanical marvel, and it's all due to some remarkably modest changes to the very robust Gen III architecture on which the Gen IV is based.
GM deemed that in order for the customer to truly buy into the concept of DOD, it must be absolutely undetectable.

 2001 GM 2500 HD & 3500-Series Pickups - Truck Specifications - Four Wheeler Magazine
And with a redesigned 6.0L V-8 (Vortec 6000) as the standard engine, an optional new 8.1L big-block V-8 (Vortec 8100), and a 6.6L turbo-diesel V-8 (Duramax 6600), these pickups are poised to deliver.
According to a GM source, the NVG 5600 six-speed was not used, because the ZF box provides a weight-savings of more than 100 pounds with similar torque-handling capability.
Since GM elected not to create a completely separate HD truck line (as Ford did with the Super Duty), it's no surprise that the 2500HD and 3500 look similar to their light-duty brethren.
