Super TestCar reviews - Holden - Commodore ute - SS 2-dr utilityHolden modelsResearch Holden Engine3 Aug 2001 STANDARD issue in the SS ute is the imported Gen III all-alloy V8. It's a basic pushrod design, but uses state-of-the-art electronics such as sequential electronic fuel-injection, twin knock control sensors and separate ignition coils for each cylinder. The design also incorporates low-friction technology. It uses oversquare bore/stroke dimensions and has six-bolt main bearings where the base V6 uses a four-bolt design. A stainless steel exhaust prolongs the system's life expectancy. Capacity is 5.665 litres and compression ratio is a high 10:1. Recommended fuel is regular 91 octane unleaded. The V8 winds out 225kW of power at 5200rpm and 460Nm of torque at 4400rpm.
