Hello everyone,
It's time to move on from that leaking, expensive, and tired air-cooled VW motor! No longer are the days of expensive and complicated fuel injection motor systems! OEM reliable fuel injection systems are in REACH. Did you know that GM built over 4 million 2.4L LE5 Ecotecs from 2006 to 2009? That's right - over 4 MILLION.
So what does that mean to you, the customer? It means that finding a low mileage LE5 2.4L Ecotec is as easy as picking up the phone. It also means that the LE5 2.4L Ecotec offers you an EXTREME VALUE for your money. The term "Dime a Dozen" fits here nicely. Parts are affordable and readily available at your local Autozone or NAPA.
The LE5 is a larger 2.4 L—2,384 cc (145.5 cu in)—version of the Ecotec. Both the 88 mm (3.5 in) bore and 98 mm (3.9 in) stroke are larger, and Variable Valve Timing [VVT] on the intake and exhaust improve low-end torque. Compression is 10.4:1. Power is 164-177 hp (123-132 kW) and torque is 159-170 lb·ft (215-230 N·m). The engine uses a reinforced "Gen II" block. The LE5 is a true 175 HP out-of-the-box solution.
The 2.4L Ecotec is the motor of choice in off-road applications at AFI. Here is why:
* The cost difference between the 2.2L L61 is negligible.
* The 2.4L LE5 offers more displacement
* The 2.4L LE5 supports VVT
* The 2.4L LE5 supports Electronic Throttle Body
* The 2.4L LE5 uses the 'reinforced' GM GEN II block [the same block as the LSJ/LNF]
* The early production [2006-2007] 2.4L LE5's are BOOST READY w/ forged pistons, rods, & crankshafts
* The 2.4L LE5 has targeted oil jets to cool pistons
* The 2.4L LE5 has a higher flowing intake manifold [than the L61]
* The 2.4L LE5 uses 58X crankshaft position sensing
* The 2.4L LE5 uses digital crankshaft & camshaft position sensors
* The 2.4L LE5 uses an individual coil on plug ignition system
* The 2.4L LE5 uses the vastly superior 32-bit E67 ECM
Why buy an Ecotec from AFI? Here is why: AFI does all the work for you. All AFI Ecotec motors are bench-tested, professionally cleaned, prepped for your application, and guaranteed to give smiles in your BAJA, dunebuggy, or sandrail. AFI Ecotec's come with the following accessories.
* Intake manifold & Throttle Body
* Exhaust manifold w/ O2
* All electronic sensors [coils, cam sensors, knock sensor, VVT, etc.]
* Fuel rail & injectors
Basically - your motor will have everything you need to complete your swap. We can provide complete swap solutions including engine harnesses, ECM unlocking, ECM custom tuning, fuel systems, adapters, etc. Please see our other product listings. We typically do our motor, harness & ECM combo, adapter plate & flywheel for $2150.
