  2. Stroke ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stroke_ratio

    An engine is described as oversquare or short-stroke if its cylinders have a greater bore diameter than its stroke length, giving a bore/stroke ratio greater than 1:1. An oversquare engine allows for more and larger valves in the head of the cylinder, higher possible rpm by lowering maximum piston speed, and lower crank stress due to the lower ...

  3. Bore (engine) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bore_(engine)

    Engine displacement is calculated based on bore, stroke length and the number of cylinders: [1] displacement = π ( ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ × bore ) 2 × stroke × n cylinders. The stroke ratio, determined by dividing the bore by the stroke, traditionally indicated whether an engine was designed for power at high engine speeds or torque at lower engine ...

  4. Stroke (engine) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stroke_(engine)

    The induction stroke is the first phase in a four-stroke (e.g. Otto cycle or Diesel cycle) engine.It involves the downward movement of the piston, creating a partial vacuum that draws an air-fuel mixture (or air alone, in the case of a direct injection engine) into the combustion chamber.

  5. Rover V8 engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rover_V8_engine

    The 1964 Buick iron-block 4.9 L (300 cu in) engine had aluminium cylinder heads, 3.75 bore and a longer 3.4" stroke crankshaft, which with modification can be used with the Buick 215 or Rover engine blocks to produce a high-output, very light weight V8 with displacement of up to about 4.9 L (300 cu in). The 300 crank, after machining the mains ...

  6. Toyota L engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toyota_L_engine

    The L is the first L engine produced. Toyota solely refers to it as the L engine, not the 1L engine. 2.2 L (2,188 cc), four-cylinder diesel engine. [7] Bore and stroke are 90 mm × 86 mm (3.54 in × 3.39 in), with compression ratios of around 21.5:1 [8]

  7. AMC V8 engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AMC_V8_engine

    All three engines share the same basic block design and external measurements; the different displacements are achieved through various bore and stroke combinations. Bore center measurement was kept the same as the Gen-1 V8 at 4.75 in (120.7 mm) so that boring equipment could be reused. Other than that, this engine is vastly different from the ...

  8. Toyota A engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toyota_A_engine

    The cylinder bore was enlarged from the previous 3A engines at 81 mm (3.19 in), but the stroke remained the same as the 3A at 77 mm (3.03 in), giving it an over-square bore/stroke ratio which favours high engine speeds. Numerous variations of the 4A design were produced, from basic SOHC 8-valve all the way to DOHC 20-valve versions.

  9. List of Subaru engines - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Subaru_engines

    The engine has a total displacement of 1,998 cc (122 cu in) from a square 86 mm × 86 mm (3.4 in × 3.4 in) bore x stroke with a compression ratio of 16.3:1 and uses five main bearings. The EE20 shares a bore pitch dimension and assembly line with the EZ30 at the Ooizumi Factory; compared to the contemporaneous gasoline EJ20, which has a ...
