Engine Tech
Please feel free to submit engines and data. However
I limit what I post to 2 things.
1.) The horse power to cubic inch ratio must be at least
.775
2.) I only post one of each engine for each make.
For instance I won't put a 1971 Chevy 454 on here because I already have
a 1970 454.
Year = year(s) of engine
Make = manufacturer of engine
Size = actual cubic inches of engine
bhp = base horse power
torque = ft-lbs. of torque
bhp/c.i. = base horse power per cubic inch of engine
