lately there have been lots of thred about V engines and inline engines which is better and how they work ..

after explaining in my own language a little about the diffrence and which is better i wanted you all to understand it so im posting this thred and this link from a technical school which explain all about the engines /
it starts from the simple engine till the W16 engine . it 6 pages long and press continue in the end of the page to go to the next page .

so i hope you all read it and know more

enjoy the reading

http://www.e31.net/engines_e.html That's really good information :shock:

The one that White-Night posted is probably more detailed.

White-Night, I read the whole thing... that article is AMAZING!!
Thank you so much dude!!

But in my own opinion, rotary engine is the smoothest one, because of it's pistons structure.
Don't you think that?

Hell no, rotaries have many inherant problems.
And they are definately not "smooth" running.

You bet they are, they are close to I-6, you can barely feel them running.

Not if their tuned at all, I have two friends with RX-7's, those engines vibrate like a hookers vibrator lol.

Tuned? I meant stock... like the RX8. :)

It depends of what kind of tunning hase been applied on. coz of many kinds of tunning ignore some parameters to reach it's power, don't you think that?

Not only engine configuration hampers engine smoothness a long delay peroid followed by a rapid rise of pressure which mainly deals with valve timming.If you check at the back of your car manual in technical and servicing they will say check your valve timming about ever 200,000 miles.

Wow, thank's. Some very good info !

Yeah, I had a question related to V6 and I6 that has been answered.

Its true what they say about the inline six. I've owned two Ford 300ci (4.9L for metric people) Inline sixers (a '62 and an '84) and both have lasted well beyond 200,000 miles with only standard maintenance.
