i just got this new job and i was walking by some parts and the tag said general motors. at first glance i thought they were fords dual overhead cam heads, but i got closer and saw 10 spark plugs along with 10 exuast / intake ports so obviously it was a v10. i was wondering if anybody has any idea what these are going in or to.

I dont think GM has an OHC to my knowlege. Ford does but I beleive they are SOHC. My buddy had one in his Excursion and it really had some force behind it.

see i know that gm doesn't really have any dohc other than really the caddilac, oldsmobile not sure if the buicks are dohc. but anyways none of those are v10s. and i am 100 percent sure those are general motors. does th xlr by caddie have a v10? maybe gm has something up there sleeve.

I remember seeing something last year about the Escalade having a performance option of a V-10, didnt know it was OHC. Oh yeah, it was on that show Rescue Me when that crazy chick bought one for whats his face, Dennis something.

just a possibility but maybe it is from one of the heads from the inline 5's they are using now. maybe a pair of them were just sitting together

The Northstar engines are OHC. None are I-5 though, or V10.

GM does not have a V10. the reason being that it's easier for them to just make a bigger V8. i thik their biggest is the 8.1L used in trucks.
