VEGE 813P 2.4L 2366cc Premium Grade Long Block Remanufactured Crate Engine

Description

During heavy rural postal route deliveries, the VEGE 813P Remanufactured Crate Engine premium long block package provides dependable propulsion across a 2.4L 2366cc platform. Generating 116 BHP at 4800 RPM and 142 lb-ft torque at 2800 RPM, it repowers work trucks and sport utilities while eliminating oil leaks, timing clatter, and lost cylinder compression.

A cast iron engine block features precision decked surfaces with a 3.62-inch cylinder bore and 3.50-inch stroke. The rotating group incorporates a balanced forged steel crankshaft, forged connecting rods, and premium hypereutectic aluminum pistons. Cylinder pressure builds across a 9.4:1 compression ratio. A 4.5-quart steel oil pan ensures steady oil pickup under heavy payloads. Total dressed dry weight checks in at 320 lbs for solid chassis traction.

Key Features of VEGE 813P

Discerning truck owners buy VEGE 813P crate engine units to cure head gasket failures and timing chain chatter in classic work trucks. Each premium remanufactured long block features upgraded multi-layer steel head gaskets, steel timing guides, and micro-finished bearing journals for extended service life.

• 3.62-inch cylinder bores receive plateau honing to seat piston rings fast.
• SOHC valvetrain controls eight valves for superior airflow balance across low RPM bands.
• 45mm intake valves and 37mm exhaust valves promote efficient cylinder scavenging.
• 52cc combustion chambers eliminate detonation knock when burning standard 87-octane pump gasoline.
• Multi-layer steel head gaskets seal combustion fire rings under all temperature extremes.
• Steel-backed timing chain damper guides inside the VEGE 813P block prevent timing chain derailment.
• Nitrided forged steel crankshaft journals provide superior resistance against bearing wear.
• Stamped steel rear-sump oil pan clears front drive axle housings and steering linkage.

Combustion Dynamics Dyno Output Specs

The power curve delivers consistent torque output between 900 and 5,200 RPM. Peak dynamometer output reaches 116 brake horsepower at 4,800 RPM alongside 142 lb-ft torque at 2,800 RPM. Camshaft duration measures 206 degrees on intake and 210 degrees on exhaust at 0.050-inch lift, alongside 0.400-inch valve lift. The motor runs on standard 87-octane regular pump unleaded gasoline. Intake manifold vacuum pulls 20 in-Hg at a smooth 750 RPM idle. Operating oil pressure regulates between 42 and 68 PSI at 2,500 working RPM.

Drivetrain Interface Engine Bay Clearance

The rear bellhousing pattern aligns flush to longitudinal manual and automatic truck transmissions. An internal neutral balance crank flange attaches straight to production flywheels or torque converter flexplates. Standard block mounting pads align with chassis rubber isolators, preserving three inches of clearance to steering boxes and radiator core supports.

Break-In Protocol Maintenance Parameters

Pre-lube all engine oil passages with a pressurized tank before initial startup to protect journal bearings. Fill the crankcase with SAE 10W-30 mineral break-in oil and bleed trapped air bubbles from heating circuit hoses. This premium truck motor is not engineered for turbocharging exceeding 7 PSI boost, competitive mud bogging, or unmetered nitrous oxide injection.

• Run motor at 2,000 RPM for 20 minutes to bed in camshaft lobes.
• Drain initial break-in oil and install a fresh oil filter after the first 500 miles.
• Replace crankcase motor oil and inspect drive belts every 3,000 miles during regular service.

Verified Warranty Physical Crate Manifest

A 36-Month / 100,000-Mile nationwide limited warranty provides long-term mechanical protection against defects. The heavy transport crate contains the remanufactured long block, stamped steel oil pan, aluminum timing cover, harmonic damper, cast aluminum valve cover, oil pressure verification report, and an installation instruction handbook.
