My F-Type Jaguar direct injection 3.0 V6 is getting a set of pulleys (upper and lower), the associated ECU tune and transmission tune, which allows the shift points to happen at redline. 84.5mm bore, 89 stroke.
The engine is in essence, a 90 deg V8 with the 2 aft pistons removed (yes, it's weird) But the result is utterly wonderful to drive. It's an absolute blast and makes wonderful noisy sports car engine sounds.
The OEM oil is 0W-20 Castrol Edge and it has a 48 gallon sump (holds nearly 9 quarts). The oil is barely up to the task for stock engines and there have been bearing problems, chain problems and early replacements. Those that modify these engines tend to go with a robust 5W-30. It should be known that the EARLIER V8 versions of this engine used 5W-40 and 10W-40 oil. And that the crank and rod bearings are the same as the V8.
