Calculating Engine Capacity To work out the capacity of an engine we need to know the BORE and STROKE of the engine Bore The BORE is the diameter of the CYLINDER Stroke The STROKE of an engine is the distance the piston moves when travelling from bottom dead centre (BDC) to top dead centre (TDC) or vice versa. Once we have this information we can work out the volume swept out by each piston in the engine We can use the formula V = 3.14 × (B ÷ 2) 2 × S Where V = Swept Volume of Piston B = Bore of the Cylinder S = Stroke of the Engine Then to find the total engine capacity Engine Capacity = V × N Where V = Swept Volume of Piston N = Number of cylinders NOTE: The engine capacity is usually quoted in cubic centimetres (cc’s) so we have to make sure that the measurements we put into our formulas for the Bore and the Stroke are in centimetres Austin 7 Straight 4 Engine with : Bore = 56mm ×× Stroke = 76mm Use the information above to calculate the engine capacity of the car 1968 Pontiac Superior Ambu- lance V8 Engine with : Bore = 105mm ×× Stroke = 95mm Dodge Viper V 10 Engine with : Bore = 100mm ×× Stroke = 99mm Use the information above to calculate the engine capacity of the car Jaguar XJS Convertible V12 engine with : Bore = 90mm ×× Stroke = 70mm 1996 Ferrari Formula 1 Type F310 V 10 engine with : Bore = 98mm ×× Stroke = 40mm Use the information above to calculate the engine capacity of the car Given they were in the year that was using the 3L formula, were Fer- rari cheating?

Swampʼs Diesel Performance Tips to Help Remove and Install Power
Injectors-Chips-Clutches-Transmissions-Turbos-Engines-Fuel Systems Swampʼs Diesel Performance Competition Parts For Your Diesel 304-A Sand Hill Rd. La Vergne, TN 37086 Tel 615-793-5573 or (866) 595-8724/ Fax 615-793-5572 Email: [email protected] Tips to help remove and install Power Stroke injectors. Removal: After removing the valve covers and the valve cover gaskets, but before removing any injectors, drain the oil rails by removing the drain plugs inside the valve cover. On 94-97 trucks theyʼre just under where the electrical connectors are on the gasket. These plugs are very tight; give them a sharp blow with a hammer and punch to help break them loose, then use a 1/8" Allen wrench. The oil will drain out into the valve train area and from there into the crankcase. Donʼt drop the plugs down the push rod holes! Also remove one of the plugs on top of each oil rail, (beside where the lines from the High Pressure Oil Pump enter) for a vent to allow air to enter so the oil can drain. The plugs are 5/8”. Inspect the plug O-rings and replace if necessary. If the plugs under the covers leak, it will cause a substantial loss of performance. When removing the injectors, oil and fuel from the passages in the cylinder head drains down through the injector bore into the cylinders. If not removed, this can hydro-lock the engine when cranking. There is a ~40cc dish in the center of each piston. Fluid accumulates in it, as well as in the corner on the outside of the piston between the piston top and the cylinder wall, due to the 45* slope of the cylinder bank.

Tapered Bore Throttle Bodies Increase Power and Torque
Tapered Bore Throttle Bodies Increase Power And Torque EFI Hardware have increased the range of high performance Tapered Bore Throttle Bodies to include 43mm, 45mm, 48mm, 50mm and 53mm throttle plate sizes. The tapered bore results in an increase in air speed over conventional straight bore throttle bodies. This extra air speed enhances the engine's scavenging cycle to provide increased filling on each cylinder intake stroke. More air, plus the corrected fuel and spark delivery equals more engine torque and power. Tapered Bores are available in the EFI Hardware Pro Race Series Throttle Bodies. TAPERED BORE THROTTLES Tapered Bore Throttles have a clear advantage over Parallel Bore Throttles at increasing power and torque. By accelerating the air through a venturi (in this case a tapered bore) the air speed through the throttle body is increased. This enhances the engine cycle's scavenging effect to provide more air and fuel in the combustion chamber and therefore more power and torque. The Tapered Bore Throttle Body has 3 sections: ● Inlet from ram tube is the largest diameter of between 45mm and 55mm ● This then tapers down to a short parallel section for the throttle plate between 43 and 53mm ● There is a second taper down to the outlet flange of the throttle body of between 40 and 50mm HP RATINGS HP/kW Ratings vary from engine to engine. The power ratings given here are only a guide, and are not absolute power ratings. Engine power is determined by intake, exhaust, cylinder head design, camshaft design, compression ratio, fuel type and quality and many other factors.

Engines normally conveconvertrt thermal energy into mechanical work and therefore they are called heat engines. Heat engines can be broadly classified into : i)i)i) External combustion engines ( E C Engines) ii)ii)ii) Internal combustion engines ( I C Engines ) External combustion engines are those in which combustion takes place outside the engine. FoFoForFo r example, IIInInnn sssteamsteam engine or steam turbine the heat generated due to combustion of fuel and it is employed to generate high pressure steamsteam,, which is used as working fluid in a reciprocating engine or turbine.
