Power, efficiency and Cadillac pride delivered right to your door!You want the ultimate in high-tech GM technology with
the refinement that only Cadillac can bring you? Well, you
are looking at your next project engine in our LC3 4.4L
supercharged, 32-valve, DOHC V-8! The amazingly efficient
(1.65 hp/cubic inch) LC3 takes the small-block V-8
to the extreme in performance, reliability, and quality.
The keys to all of this are the roots-style supercharger,
GM's variable valve timing valve train, and 4.4 liters of
gentlemanly power.
Simply put, Cadillac's new supercharged Northstar 4.4L
(LC3) V-8 is a showcase of advanced engine technology.
Cadillac engineers held nothing back when building the
exciting new LC3 supercharged V-8. They wanted an
excellent idle, smooth throttle response, and exhilarating
top end power. To do this, they developed a new intercooled
roots-style supercharger to work with the
Northstar's infinitely variable valve timing to deliver high
performance and exceptional refinement. Horsepower
pops to 469 at 6,400 rpm, and the extremely broad
torque band peaks at 439 lbs.-ft. at 3900 rpm with
90% of that available from 2200-6000 rpm.
