100 bhp per litre

Hehe, one of my race bikes makes 38BHP (at 10,000rpm) from 0.125L...304BHP/litre

one of mine was a 350cc that was around 80 hp with lots of area under the curve not quite the hp/L as yours but still a lot of fun


just goes to show the hp/l argument really dosent mean much

as an engineer what I admire most in engine design is top efficiency, performance and reliability at the same time. add a bit of cost efficiency and longevity, light weigt, style and sexy sound and you have the total conundrum.

I admire running on the raged edge seconds away from glory or total destruction

reliably is boring

Thats why I say bring back qualifier engines

or Id even settle for one race engines with no rev limiters

Yeah, I have another bike which is a 500cc which is about 60BHP. Still a great deal! It is a monster to ride too

As mentioned before, the Honda S2000 makes 240 BHP from 2.0L (or 120 BHP/L). What's more is that this production car is naturally aspirated and comes with a 100K mile warranty.

I may have a stupid question. I've screwed around (read as broken ) with quite a few of the nitro R/c cars. Some of the better nitro motors claim to produce 2.5 HP. Is this true?

Here's a link to a Novarossi nitro .21CI engine making 2.62HP. How much is that per cubic inch or per liter?
