	GM Premium V engine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Premium V family of automobile engines is General Motors' modern 90° v engine architecture.
		The engine was introduced in mid-1992 in the 1993 Cadillac Allanté and continues to be used in most Cadillac models.
		The Aurora engine was introduced in 1994 for the 1995 model year, and General Motors has not used this engine since the demise of the marque in 2004.

		Premium gasoline is not better than regular, just different, said Randy Nowell, a master technician for the American Automobile Association.
		European manufacturers BMW and Volvo advise premium for all of their vehicles yet state that regular can be used without ill effects other than some loss of acceleration and gas mileage.

		The team that created the Oldsmobile Aurora V8 engine has combined the latest in combustion technology and the most extensive use of computer testing in General Motors' engine history to create the new 3.5-L V6 engine that has its first application in the 1999 Intrigue.
		This engine "ran" in computer simulation more than a year before the first prototype was constructed and started.
		Because of the year-long simulations, the development team attained a level of engine testing refinement never before achieved in a new engine, according to John Zinsler, chief engineer for Premium V engines.

		The result: an engine improved in all categories of performance and which passed its initial 500-mile validation test at what is considered an early stage of development with flying colors.
		Engine design yields performance improvements "These tools have allowed us to increase horsepower by reducing frictional losses and reciprocating weight, increasing engine airflow and improving combustion chamber shape and valve timing events," Allen said.

		The engines were a mainstay in the '82-'93 GM light-duty truck line under the hoods of Chevrolet and GMC pickups, Suburbans, and fullsize vans.
		If you spot an old, beat-up GM pickup or big van sitting beside a barn, wedged in the farthest row of junkyard dogs, or serving as a trellis for a growth of flberries, it probably has a 6.2L diesel under the hood.
		Heed this advice: If the engine you are contemplating as the builder is pre-'88, find a newer engine for the best performance and reliability from the rebuild at the cheapest price.
