		Another oddity of this engine is that although it is a 90° V6 and thus has the Buick\Oldsmobile\Pontiac V8 bellhousing pattern when used in RWD applications, it has the GM 60° V6 bellhousing pattern when it is used in FWD applications.
		In mid-1984, the engine was modified for transverse-mounting in smaller, FWD vehicles, and equipped with multiport fuel injection (MPFI).
		Although the stroke for the 3.8 L engine remained at 3.4 in (86 mm), and the bore remained at 3.8 in (97 mm), the engine architecture was vastly changed.

		The odd fire engine uses a distributor cap with equal spaces between the plugs on the distributor cap and the even fire engine has unequal spaces between the plugs on the distributor cap.
		This engine has the same external dimensions as the 231 and can be told from the 231 by the 4.1L cast in the drivers side rear instead of 3.8L.
		Keeping these engines cool is a bit more challenging than the 3.8L, but it is nice to have the extra displacement.

		The Buick engine after 1979 is referred to as having "late model" heads and intake manifolds and other items manufactured for the earlier odd-fire models do not fit the later models after 1979.
		The odd-fire engines have a stronger crankshaft than even-fire Buick engines due to the fact that the even-fire engines redesigned the crankshaft journals (split them) in order to run in an even-fire mode--this weakened the crank considerably.
		Within a short time after the engineers left Salt Lake City it was announced the Kaiser Jeep Corp. had purchased the rights to manufacture the Buick 225 V6 engine and shortly after that CJ5's and Jeepsters were being offered to the public with a V6 option (1965 for the 1966 model year).

		Engines made by Chevy have their own engine to bellhousing bolt pattern and while they interchange widely on Chevy engines, they will not fit other engines in the GM family.

		Engine: The engine number was located at the front of the engine block on the water pump boss.
		Because there is little difference between the engine performance at idle with #3 wire on or off, it is obvious that, while the spark plug may be firing in air, it is not firing hot enough (or what is more probable regularly enough) to ignite the mixture in that cylinder.
		The engine codes seem to indicate that the first letter is the engine year, while the second letter is the comp ratio (9.0-1).

		Since a NEW jeep was around $1500.00, Kaiser didn't have the profit built into the jeep which would allow them to pay royalty for the engine.
		People were doing that long befor Kaiser decided to do it and with ALOT of different motors.As it turned out,that motor worked best for many reasons,and was the most popular conversion being done at the time.as forbumpers I've no idea.Mine are 3/16 thick tube,capped and serve as air tanks.
		I think that the most important aspect of this arguement is that, in order to do it right, an engine swap to a small block requires not only the engine but the entire drive train.

		OMC pioneered the use of V6 marine engines, an engine format that continues to be popular some forty years later.
		In 1962, this engine was rudely chopped from a V-8 to supplant a troublesome all-aluminum (Fireball 198) V-6.
		Joseph D. Turlay, Buick's top engine designer of the period, responding to Buick's need for an engine for the new small car, said he could build a 90-degree V-6 quickly by simply eliminating two cylinders from Buick's 215 aluminum V-8.
