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 ...
An engine's displacement and compression ratio both play a big part in determining how much power it makes. Here's how the ...

At first glance, the concept of engine compression is simple enough:It's the ratio of the volume of the combustion chamber and bore when thepiston is at bottom dead center (BDC) versus when it is at ...
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 ...
On paper, Nissan's variable-compression turbocharged engine should have been pretty awesome. Since it could change its compression ratio on the fly, it promised the power of a bigger engine when you ...
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 ...
