When comparing engine specs for nearly any combustion engine automobile, we see a number of variations available with differing outputs of horsepower and torque. We often have a choice of gasoline or ...

As you may know, an engine's compression ratio is directly linked to its combustion efficiency. All else being equal, higher-compression engines tend to make more power while offering better fuel ...

Higher power usually means worse fuel economy, except when it comes to compression ratio. Here is how engines extract more ...

If there's one question that's forever on the lips of car enthusiasts, it's how much horsepower an engine makes. Answering that question is deceptively complicated, however, because of what the term ...

Increasing an engine’s compression ratio is a proven way of unlocking extra horsepower, but there’s a point of diminishing returns. The team at Garage 54, the Russian mechanics who built a V16 using ...

Low- And High-Compression Fuel Economy Engines: The Techniques Are About The Same, But The Approach To Each Is Somewhat Different. A.Most stock cylinder heads have factory-cut undercuts of the type ...

With every passing day the Mule provides opportunities beyond our original expectations. Since the 467ci engine belongs to HPP editor Tom DeMauro, it is at our beck and call. This affords HPP the ...

Most engines generate power from an internal combustion system. On the basic level, these engines work by compressing fuel and air into a tight space. Within the cylinders of an engine, pistons pump ...
