One complete cycle of a four-cylinder, four-stroke engine. The volume displaced is marked in orange. Engine displacement is the measure of the cylinder volume swept by all of the pistons of a piston engine, excluding the combustion chambers. [1] It is commonly used as an expression of an engine's size, and by extension as an indicator of the ...
The Detroit Diesel Series 71 is a two-stroke diesel engine series, available in both inline and V configurations, manufactured by Detroit Diesel. The number 71 refers to the nominal displacement per cylinder in cubic inches, a rounding off of 70.93 cu in (1.2 L). Inline models included one, two, three, four and six cylinders, and the V-types ...
Mean effective pressure. The mean effective pressure (MEP) is a quantity relating to the operation of a reciprocating engine and is a measure of an engine's capacity to do work that is independent of engine displacement. [1] Despite having the dimension of pressure, MEP cannot be measured. [2]
Specifications. All 710 engines are two-stroke 45° V engines. The 710 model was introduced in 1985 and has a 1-inch (25 mm) longer stroke (now 11 in or 279 mm) than the 645 (10 in or 254 mm stroke). The engine is uniflow scavenged with four poppet exhaust valves in the cylinder head. For maintenance, a power assembly, consisting of a cylinder ...

Originally displacing 267 cubic inches (4.38 L), it was also manufactured in 292 cubic inches (4.79 L) and 306 cubic inches (5.01 L) displacements between 1940 and 1948. Lincoln produced two other L-head V12s in 1932 ...
The 301.6-cubic-inch (4.9 L) GMC inline six was produced from 1952 to 1960, when it was replaced by the V6. It has a square bore/stroke ratio of 4 by 4 inches (101.6 mm × 101.6 mm). This is the largest raised-deck engine. It was originally designed for the GMC military M135 and M211. It was used in military 2 1⁄2 -ton trucks with the ...
Each cylinder is of 645 cubic inches (10.57 L) displacement, hence the name; with a bore of 9 + 1 ⁄ 16 inches (230 mm), a stroke of 10 inches (254 mm) and a compression ratio of 14.5:1. The engine is a uniflow design with four poppet -type exhaust valves in the cylinder head and charge air scavenging ports within the sides of the cylinders.
Ford Model T engine. Side view of the Ford Model T engine. [1] The Ford Model T used a 177 cu in (2.9 L) sidevalve, reverse-flow cylinder head inline 4-cylinder engine. It was primarily a gasoline engine. It produced 20 hp (14.9 kW) for a top speed of 45 mph (72 km/h). It was built in-unit with the Model T's novel transmission (a planetary ...
