Oh fun, an ENGINE!




Yes, I realize this is being posted right after the previous post, but i felt it needed to be separate. This post is to highlight my killer engine I have sitting in my living room right now. I found it from a guy on craigslist complete for only $800.

The engine is a four-stroke, four cylinder, fuel-injected motor out of a Honda CBR1000RR crotch rocket. The engine also features a dual-stage fuel injection system, meaning that at wide open throttle, fuel is injected in to the air intake as well as the cylinder heads, so the fuel coming in to the cylinders is already premixed with gasoline.

specs:
Displacement:998.00 ccm (60.90 cubic inches)
Engine type:In-line four
Stroke:4
Compression:11.9:1
Bore x stroke:75.0 x 56.5 mm (3.0 x 2.2 inches)
Fuel system:Injection. Dual Stage Fuel Injection (DSFI)
Fuel control:DOHC
Ignition:Computer-controlled digital transistorized with three-dimensional mapping
Starter:Electric
Cooling system:Liquid
Gearbox:6-speed
Transmission type
final drive:
Chain






















all in all, the engine delivers about 150hp to the chain, and is capable of 300+ with a turbo and tuning.
