Petrol

GH engine

Isuzu's first petrol engines were license built Hillman units for the locally assembled Minx, from 1953. Called the GH10 it has a bore of 652NaN2 and a stroke of 952NaN2 for a displacement of 12601NaN1. Power is 37.50NaN0. In 1955 this was updated to the GH12, a square design with a 76.2 mm bore and stroke for a displacement of 13901NaN1. This was upgraded in 1956 for more power, 460NaN0 rather than the original's 430NaN0, and was renamed GH100. In 1958, power increased yet again, to 500NaN0.[14]

GL engine

For 1959 Isuzu developed their own square design (78mm) called the GL150, Isuzu's first own petrol engine.[15] Still showing unmistakable Hillman origins it displaces 14911NaN1 and has 600NaN0.[14] The GL150 was fitted to the 1959 Isuzu Elf and the 1961 Bellel.

G140The 1.4 L G140 engine was used in the Chevrolet Chevette in North America. The engine block and associated components for the USA market Isuzu G-series engines were locally produced under license by a GM engine casting and assembly plant in Flint, Michigan. In South America an overhead-cam version was adapted, and later developed into a 1599 cc version with a 75.7 mm stroke.[16] 82mm66.2mm1398cc53PS OHV
G150The 1.5 L G150 engine was used in the Isuzu Bellett and the Isuzu Elf.79mm75mm1471cc68PS OHV
G160/G161The eight-valve 1.6 L G160/G161 engine was used in the Isuzu Florian and the Isuzu Bellett GT, as well as a number of commercial vehicles including the Elf 150 (KA41/51). The G160 has a three main bearing crankshaft, whereas the G161 has five bearings. There is also an SOHC version of this called the G161S, which was used in the Florian and the Bellett. A new version of this engine, with the same dimensions, was called the G161Z and was installed in the Florian, Isuzu Gemini, Holden Gemini and Holden Rodeo, and Chevrolet Chevette. Part of the "Z" engine family, this was later renamed the 4ZA1. A further (albeit earlier) development was the twin-cam G161W engine (still with eight valves) first presented in the Isuzu Bellett GT-R in March 1968.82mm75.7mm1599cc61PS OHV
G180The 1.8 L G180SS engine was used in the Isuzu Bellett GT. The 1.8 L G180Z SOHC engine was used in the 1972–1976 Opel Kadett, Isuzu Gemini, Chevrolet LUV, and Isuzu 117 Coupé. There is also the G180W DOHC eight valve engine which was used in the Gemini ZZ (Japan only) and the Isuzu 117 Coupé.84mm82mm1818cc78- @4800rpm

G200The 2.0 L G200Z engine was used in the 1981–1985 Chevrolet LUV and also Isuzu Trooper (Holden Jackaroo in Australia). With carburettor it has 86 hp, with EFI in the Isuzu Piazza 90 hp in the US and 110 hp in Japan. The G200W DOHC eight valve engine was found in the 19??-1985 JDM, Isuzu 117 Coupé and early Isuzu Piazza with 135 hp (101 kW) and 123 lb·ft (167 N·m) of torque. It was also installed in 1982 - 1985 GMC S-15 pickup trucks, where it received the LR1 engine code. Unlike the 1.4 which was locally produced, the G200 was imported. It was also used with the second generation LUV and Isuzu P'UP until GM discontinued it as the entry level powerplant when the Iron Duke was made the base motor after 1985; some early S10/S15s came with the optional GM 122 engine shared with its J-platform compacts since it was locally produced.87mm82mm1949cc82hp @4600rpm

Isuzu C engine

Isuzu's C-series engine was a mainstay for their light truck production, as well as for industrial and marine uses. The engine was introduced in 1959; by 1985 over 2 million units had been produced.[23] It was replaced in 1985 by the larger J-series engine.

It has also been fitted to light-duty versions of the Isuzu Elf and the Isuzu Journey-S minibus. For later industrial and marine applications, this engine has been called 4AA1.

It was also used in the 1979–1981 Isuzu 117 Coupé XD/XDL, one of the first cars with sporting pretensions to be fitted with a diesel engine. In the 117, claimed max power (JIS) increased to 730NaN0 at 4,300 rpm.[25] It is a bored out version of the 2-litre DL201 and was first seen in the 1964 Isuzu Elf, as the C220 with 62 PS.

It has been used in the second and third generation Isuzu Elf 250 since late 1969 (TLD23) and also in the rare, front-wheel drive "Elf Mypack" (KUD20). For later industrial and marine applications, this engine has been called 4AB1. This family of Isuzu engines were fitted in early diesel jeepneys and CJ2A, CJ3A jeeps made by Francisco Motors and Sarao Motors in the Philippines.86mm102mm2369cc38to

Better known as the "Circle L engine", it is made in Poland by Isuzu Motors Polska and is available in certain Opel and Honda vehicles. It was available in versions of 100, 110 and latest 130 PS. The only visible difference between the versions is the relocation of the oil filler cap from upper right (Honda 2003-2005, engine type 4EE 2, 100PS version, 5-hole injector nozzles), to lower right, then to lower left corner of the engine (Opel engine types A17DT A17DTC A17DTE[30]).[31] The early version used 5-hole injector nozzles, the latest has 7-hole injector nozzles for better emissions and fuel economy.79mm86mm1686cc740NaN016 Valve DOHC

Isuzu J engine

The J-series direct injection diesel engine was introduced in 1985, in 2.5 or 2.8 liter displacements.[23] Initially installed only in lighter duty versions of the Isuzu Elf, it soon found its way into other Isuzu products. It replaced the somewhat smaller C engine; later on 3.1- and 3.0-liter versions were also introduced - still with four cylinders in line.
