can someone explain if there are any diference in power from a small diameter piston than a piston with twice or more times the diameter?

@Neflyte300zx

more Nm (torque)

power will be grater, but smaller size can do more rpm with same amount of fuel.

in short, you win just Nm

[Kilohercas]

well, not lot of people use high rpm while driving, so that's normal

i never used more than 5000rmp on diesel engine so far... :)

@evets433 you and your logical answers!!!!!!!!

[evets433]

@daniel0771 Some One still has to be paid to programm the machines, which is all done on cam now )CAM=Computer Aided Machining, and before that they need to be designed, then there is the initial cost of the machines, the running cost of the machines, the cost of the billets of metal , tooling for the machines, testing and the list goes on :D

@Neflyte300zx think of it as it is a sailboat - if the sail is big or small in the same boat weight with the same wind speed ,but the stroke length also effect the power and the stroke & bore ratio wither it is oversquared or undersquared engine for the same CC , for the undersquared it get high torque at low rpm and for the oversquared you get low torque at low rpm but the acceleration is better

robots do all of the work yet we still pay a shit ton of money for them.

@Kilohercas You shouldn't need to use more than that on standard diesel engines. It's quite common for smaller petrol engines (i.e. 4 cylinder) to rev to 9000rpm or more.

"even up to 6k rpm" my 2 stroke gets up to 15k :D

all that fancy machine work & the guy takes out his pocket knife to it!!
