GM Is Investing $854 Million for its Next Small-Block V8 Engine
• The first small-block V8 came into being in the 1950s.It's no secret that General Motors is investing heavily in electrification. The company plans to introduce 30 vehicles worldwide by the end of the decade, 20 of which will be offered in Canada. That includes those already announced, like the Equinox EV and Blazer EV.
The money being committed by GM will be spread across four U.S. production sites to prepare them to make components for the new V8. Most of it will go to Flint Engine Operations in Michigan. At that plant, the engines will be assembled, along with key components such as the block and crankshaft. The machining of the cylinder heads will also be done there.
Some of these plants will also benefit from additional investments to prepare for manufacturing components for electric vehicles, GM said.

Used TVR Sagaris 4.0 2-Door for saleMAKE: TVR MODEL: Sagaris COLOUR: Spectraflair Silver YEAR: 2005 MILEAGE: 94,000 PRICE: £62,995.00 - ONO FINANCE AVAILABLE With a comprehensive full TVR service history, with its original bill of sale from Racing Green TVR and every invoice and service stamp since, you'll be hard pushed to find a car with a better stack of history. The engine has had two rebuilds in its life, one early on at 35k miles with its first lady owner, then again at the start of its life with owner number two (of ten years), at 70k miles by the legend that is Jason Clegg at Str8six and has been cared for by his fair hand ever since too. With the last oil service being done in 2021 at 93,319 miles, including a new oil pressure sender, heater boxes and stepper motor cleaned out. The car also had 4 new Yokohama tyres earlier on in the year, along with another oil service (that is how well the car has been looked after)! This car is so original and unmolested, it doesn't even have the alloy indicator stalk covers, which I know we all love, but I think we can all appreciate the fact that all of the money spent on this car has been to make sure it is as good and as close to how it left the factory as physically possible. A true credit to its owners to this point. With a frankly amazing 19 service stamps in the book, you can rest assured this car has had a better and more cosseted life than almost anything on the planet that has covered 94k miles, so don't be put off by the mileage. As my Grandad always says; ''it's much better to keep the oily bits oily'', cars languishing and not moving does them no good at all & this exact car is the one that proves that theory. Come and drive it & find fault - I bet you can't. Save yourself £10k or more on a low mileage one & get yourself a car you can actually use and enjoy with out feeling guilty for adding mileage to it. Drive it to the show, not trailer it (or worse, leave it at home). With the US market due to be able to import these rare beasts soon, they
