Parameters
- name
- Name of the engine in the engine's original or primary market, as assigned by the entity responsible for the development of the engine (not necessarily the manufacturer of the engine)
Examples: M104 or EcoBoost or N53 or Atlas - image
- Photograph of the engine, preferably in clean/as new condition, with accessories but not installed in a vehicle
See WikiProject Automobiles/Images - manufacturer
- Entity responsible for the development of the engine (not necessarily the manufacturer of the engine)
- aka
- Other common or popular names used by the public or by the manufacturer in marketing materials
Examples: Cobra-Jet or Hemi - production
- Calendar year range when the engine was produced, not the model year
Months are recommended if available, but exact dates are discouraged.
Examples: 1901-1902 or January 1901-February 1902 but not January 31, 1901-February 28, 1902.
Use {{Start date|yyyy}}-{{End date|yyyy}} or {{Start date|yyyy|mm}}-{{End date|yyyy|mm}} where yyyy is the year and mm is the numeric month. - predecessor
- Name of older or previous engine that was replaced by the engine listed in the Name field of the infobox
Leave blank if this does not apply. - successor
- Name of newer or next engine that replaced the engine listed in the Name field of the infobox
Leave blank if this does not apply. - configuration
- Arrangement and number of cylinders or rotors
Examples: Straight-6, Flat-4, V8 or W12. See Engine configuration. - displacement
- Engine displacement in litres or cubic centimeters may be used where appropriate
Use {{convert|x.x|L|cu in|abbr=on}} where x.x is the displacement in liters or {{convert|xxxx|cc|cu in|abbr=on}} where xxxx is the displacement in cubic centimenters.
Cubic inches can be used to express the displacement of engines originally engineered, designated, and marketed in cubic inches, such as pre-1980s American and pre-1974 Australian engines. When using cubic inches, use {{Auto Lrev|xxx}} where xxx is the displacement in cubic inches.
See WikiProject Automobiles/Conventions - Displacement. - bore
- Measurement of the cylinder bore in millimeters
Use {{convert|xx.xx|mm|in|abbr=on}} where xx.xx is the bore in millimeters. - stroke
- Measurement of the piston stroke in millimeters
Use {{convert|xx.xx|mm|in|abbr=on}} where xx.xx is the stroke in millimeters. - block
- Material used to construct the engine block
Examples: cast iron or aluminum - head
- Material used to construct the Cylinder head
Examples: cast iron or aluminum - valvetrain
- Description of the valvetrain
Examples: DOHC, OHC or OHV - compression
- Engine compression ratio
Example: 10:1 - supercharger
- Manufacturer, model and type of superchager if known, otherwise type of supercharger
Example of manufacturer, model and type: [[Eaton Corporation|Eaton]] R410 TVS roots type
Examples of types: Roots, Lysholm screw, Sliding vane or Scroll
Leave blank if this does not apply. - turbocharger
- Number of turbochargers (single, dual, quad, etc.) and manufacturer and model if known, otherwise number of turbochargers
Example: Single [[IHI Corporation|IHI]] VF48 or Twin [[Honeywell]] GT15 or Quad [[IHI Corporation|IHI]] VN65
Leave blank if this does not apply. - fuelsystem
- Fuel delivery system
Examples: carburetor, fuel injection
If carburetted, state make and model of carburetor if known.
Examples: [[Solex]] 34 or [[Weber carburettor|Weber]] 45
If fuel injected state make, model and characteristics of fuel injection system if known.
Example: [[Robert Bosch GmbH|Bosch]] [[Jetronic#KE-Jetronic (1985–1993)|KE-Jetronic]] electronically-controlled, mechanical fuel injection - management
- Type of engine management system
- fueltype
- Fuel used to cause combustion or movement of the pistons
Examples: gasoline, diesel, steam etc. - oilsystem
- Type of oil system
Examples: wet sump, dry sump, etc. - coolingsystem
- Type of cooling system
Examples: air-cooled, water-cooled, oil-cooled, etc. - power
- Engine power
For engines used in U.S. home market cars use {{convert|xxx|hp|kW|abbr=on}} where xxx is the power in horsepower (hp).
For engines used in German home market cars use {{convert|xxx|PS|kW hp|abbr=on}} where xxx is power in Pferdestärke (PS).
For engines used in British home market cars use {{convert|xxx|bhp|kW PS|abbr=on}} where xxx is power in brake horsepower (bhp).
For engines used in rest-of-world home market cars use {{convert|xxx|kW|hp|abbr=on}} where xxx is power in kilowatts (kW).
See WikiProject Automobiles/Conventions - Power. - specpower
- Specific power
- torque
- Peak torque at a specified revolutions per minute (rpm)
For engines used in U.S. home market cars use {{convert|xxx|ft-lb|Nm|abbr=on}} @ yyyy rpm where xxx is the torque in foot-pounds and yyyy is the rpm.
For engines used in rest-of-world home market cars use {{convert|265|Nm|ft-lb|abbr=on}} @ yyyy rpm. where xxx is the torque in Newton meters and yyyy is the rpm.
See WikiProject Automobiles/Conventions - Torque. - length
- Longest dimension of the engine in millimeters
Use {{convert|xxxx|mm|in|abbr=on}} where xxxx is the length in millimeters. - width
- Shorter of the two length measurements of the engine in millimeters
Use {{convert|xxxx|mm|in|abbr=on}} where xxxx is the width in millimeters. - height
- Maximum height of the engine in millimeters
Use {{convert|xxxx|mm|in|abbr=on}} where xxxx is the height in millimeters. - diameter
- Diameter of the engine in millimeters
Use {{convert|xxxx|mm|in|abbr=on}} where xxxx is the diameter in millimeters.
Leave blank if this does not apply. - weight
- Weight of the engine in kilograms
Use {{convert|xxx|kg|lb|abbr=on}} where xxx is the weight in kilograms.
