Trailblazer Engine Size.

[todoubled05]

hi, my friend also Co worker has been boasting about his new trailblazer. its a 2004 and he claims he can beat me in a quarter mile race. when I asked him the size of his engine he insisted it was a 4.6 V6 290 Hp vortec. I kinda gave him a "whatever" look because I'm pretty sure he's wrong. so what engines come equipped in these trailblazers?

[Wingnut]

If it's 290 hp (for some reason 270 is sticking out in my mind instead of 290)...I'm pretty sure that it was the INLINE 6. I don't know that they've ever put a V6 in a TB. V8's, yeah, but not the V6. Just the inline.

 

But I'm not anything close to an expert on the GMT360s. If they'd have not stuck a 400hp 6.0 liter LS2 in a Trailblazer, there's no way in hell I'd have bought one...So I've never followed the drivetrain configurations. Trailvoy.com might have your answers though.

they offer / offered 3 engines...

 

Inline 6-

 

5.3 v8 (i believe EXT ONLY)

 

LS2 6.0 - SS only

Yeah, there was never a v6 in the TB. About the race though, I wouldn't get too confident. A CC with the 4.8l isn't exactly a fast vehicle.

4.2 litre 270 horse straight six. base engine. the 5cyl Colorado engine is based off it.

Close.... the 5.3 is available in the regular wheelbase trucks; the Envoy Denali, Buick Rainier, and '06 or newer standard Trailblazers.

ah, 4.2, i thought they still had the 4.3s. never knew that.

[silveradocoa]

they still make the 4.3 just never in a trailblazer.

cant stand those vehicles, but the saabs with the 5.3 are REALLY nice. very comfortable interior
