Fraser Engines 3.7L Chrysler Engine Overview

The 3.7L Dodge V6 engine, also known as the PowerTech 3.7L V6, was produced by Chrysler and used in a variety of Dodge, Jeep, and Ram vehicles. This engine was part of the PowerTech engine family, designed to balance performance, durability, and fuel efficiency for trucks and SUVs.

Here’s a detailed breakdown of the 3.7L Dodge engine:

General Specifications:

  • Engine Type: Naturally aspirated V6
  • Displacement: 3,701 cc (3.7 liters)
  • Configuration: V6, 90-degree V-angle
  • Block Material: Cast iron
  • Cylinder Head Material: Aluminum
  • Valvetrain: SOHC (Single Overhead Camshaft), 12 valves (2 valves per cylinder)
  • Fuel System: Sequential multi-point fuel injection (SMPI)
  • Aspiration: Naturally aspirated
  • Firing Order: 1-6-5-4-3-2

Bore and Stroke:

  • Bore: 93.0 mm
  • Stroke: 90.8 mm

Compression Ratio:

  • 9.7:1

Power Output:

  • Horsepower:
    • Varies slightly by application and model year, but typically around 210 hp at 5,200 rpm
  • Torque:
    • Approximately 235 lb-ft (319 Nm) at 4,000 rpm

Engine Features:

  1. Cast Iron Block: Provides strength and durability, especially important for trucks and SUVs that undergo heavy-duty use.
  2. Aluminum Cylinder Heads: These help reduce the weight of the engine and improve heat dissipation.
  3. Single Overhead Camshaft (SOHC) Design: While not as complex as DOHC setups, this design is simpler and more reliable for the rugged applications it was built for.
  4. 2-Valves Per Cylinder: Provides adequate air/fuel flow while keeping the engine simple and easy to maintain.
  5. Sequential Multi-Point Fuel Injection (SMPI): Delivers more precise fuel control, improving fuel efficiency and emissions.
  6. 90-Degree V6 Design: While most modern V6 engines use a 60-degree angle for better balance and smoothness, the 90-degree design is cost-effective, sharing some characteristics with the larger V8 engines Dodge used.

Performance Characteristics:

The 3.7L V6 PowerTech was designed for utility, not for high performance. It offers reasonable power and torque for everyday driving, towing, and off-road applications. It lacks the refinement and higher power output of newer V6 engines, but it compensates with durability and reliability, especially in trucks and SUVs where longevity is a key concern.

Fuel Efficiency:

  • City/Highway Fuel Economy: Typically ranges from 15–21 miles per gallon, depending on the vehicle, drivetrain, and weight.

Applications:

The 3.7L V6 engine was used in a variety of Chrysler, Dodge, and Jeep vehicles, primarily in trucks, SUVs, and crossovers. Here are the most notable applications:

Dodge Vehicles:

  1. Dodge Dakota
    • 2004–2011 (mid-size pickup truck)
  2. Dodge Ram 1500
    • 2002–2012 (used as the base engine in this full-size truck)
  3. Dodge Nitro
    • 2007–2012 (compact/mid-size SUV)

Jeep Vehicles:

  1. Jeep Liberty
    • 2002–2012 (compact SUV)
  2. Jeep Grand Cherokee
    • 2005–2010 (midsize SUV, base engine option)
  3. Jeep Commander
    • 2006–2010 (midsize SUV)

Ram Vehicles:

  1. Ram 1500
    • 2011–2012 (the 3.7L continued in early Ram truck models after Ram was spun off from Dodge as its own brand)

Notable Strengths:

  • Durability: The 3.7L engine was designed for rugged use, making it a solid choice for trucks and SUVs that experience heavy loads, off-road driving, or towing.
  • Cost-Effectiveness: With fewer components (like only 12 valves), the 3.7L V6 engine is simpler, making it more cost-effective to produce and maintain.
  • Torque: While the horsepower is modest, the engine provides reasonable low-end torque, which is essential for towing and off-road performance.

Fraser Engines 3.7L Chrysler Engine Updates

 

3.7L Jeep Engine – Technical Updates by Fraser Engines

The 3.7L PowerTech V6 engine, used in Jeep, Dodge, and Chrysler vehicles from 2002 to 2012, was designed for durability and mid-range performance. However, this engine suffered from common issues, including valve seat failure, oil consumption, timing component wear, and overheating. Fraser Engines has resolved these weaknesses through advanced remanufacturing processes and key technical updates to ensure superior performance, reliability, and longevity.


1. Precision Machining for Optimal Performance

Fraser Engines restores the 3.7L engine block and components to better-than-OEM standards:

  • Cylinder Bore and Hone: Cylinders are bored and honed to precision tolerances within .0001 of an inch, ensuring an exact fit for pistons and improving combustion efficiency.
  • Block Decking: Both the block and cylinder heads are resurfaced to achieve perfect flatness, eliminating gasket sealing issues and preventing leaks.
  • Line Honing: Crankshaft and camshaft tunnels are line-honed to ensure perfect alignment for smooth rotation and extended engine life.

2. Valve Seat and Cylinder Head Reinforcements

A well-known issue with the 3.7L PowerTech is valve seat failure, which can cause catastrophic engine damage. Fraser Engines eliminates this problem with:

  • Upgraded Valve Seats: High-strength, heat-resistant materials are used for valve seats to prevent cracking and loosening under high temperatures.
  • Precision-Cut Valves and Seats: Valves and seats are machined to precise angles, improving airflow, combustion efficiency, and engine breathing.
  • Pressure-Tested Cylinder Heads: Heads are rigorously tested to ensure structural integrity and eliminate potential leaks or warping.

3. Improved Pistons and Rings for Reduced Oil Consumption

The 3.7L engine often suffers from excessive oil consumption due to worn rings and piston design flaws. Fraser resolves this with:

  • High-Strength Hypereutectic Pistons: Premium aluminum alloy pistons resist heat and wear while improving durability under heavy loads.
  • Advanced Piston Rings: Premium compression rings and oil control rings ensure better cylinder sealing, reducing oil consumption and blow-by.

4. Reinforced Crankshaft and Bearings

The bottom end of the 3.7L engine is fortified to improve reliability:

  • Ground and Polished Crankshaft: Crankshafts are precision-machined to provide a smooth surface, reducing friction and extending service life.
  • High-Quality Bearings: Premium main and rod bearings are installed to ensure long-lasting durability under all driving conditions.

5. Timing System Upgrades

Timing chain wear and tensioner failure are common issues in the 3.7L engine. Fraser Engines addresses this with:

  • Precision Timing Alignment: Fraser ensures exact timing component installation, improving synchronization and reducing engine vibrations.

6. Enhanced Oil System for Consistent Lubrication

Oil pressure loss and improper lubrication can lead to premature failure. Fraser Engines upgrades the oil system with:

  • High-Volume Oil Pump: Provides consistent oil flow and pressure to critical components, reducing wear and ensuring reliability.
  • Precision Oil Gallery Cleaning: Oil passages are cleaned and aligned to eliminate blockages and ensure smooth lubrication.

7. Improved Cooling System to Prevent Overheating

The 3.7L engine is susceptible to overheating, which can lead to head warping and gasket failure. Fraser addresses this with:

  • Cleaned and Restored Water Jackets: Ensures efficient coolant flow for improved thermal management.
  • Decked Cylinder Block and Heads: Flat surfaces restore cooling efficiency and prevent hot spots.

8. Comprehensive Gasket and Seal Replacement

Fraser Engines eliminates all potential leak points by:

  • Installing premium gaskets and seals, including MLS (Multi-Layer Steel) head gaskets for maximum durability.
  • Replacing all internal seals to ensure long-term, leak-free operation.

9. Rigorous Testing for Quality and Reliability

Every remanufactured 3.7L engine undergoes comprehensive quality control tests to ensure it meets or exceeds OEM performance standards:

  • Compression Testing: Verifies proper cylinder compression and combustion efficiency.
