History

This water-cooled V-12 aircraft engine was built in 1916 and had a 50-degree angle between the cylinder banks. The Tipo 4 had a 120.7 mm (4.75 in) bore and a 180.1 mm (7.09 in) stroke. The engine’s total displacement was 24.7 L (1,508 cu in). It produced 240 kW (320 hp) at 1,380 rpm and 280 kW (380 hp) at 1,420 rpm. The Tipo 4 engine was direct drive and weighed 340 kg (740 lb). The engine shipped to the United States in late 1917. [1]

The Honda D series inline-four cylinder engine is used in a variety of compact models, most commonly the Honda Civic, CRX, Logo, Stream, and first-generation Integra. Engine displacement ranges between 1.2 and 1.7 liters. The D Series engine is either SOHC or DOHC, and might include VTEC variable valve lift. Power ranges from 66 PS (49 kW) in the Logo to 130 PS (96 kW) in the Civic Si. D-series production commenced 1984 and ended 2005. D-series engine technology culminated with production of the D15B 3-stage VTEC (D15Z7) which was available in markets outside of the United States. Earlier versions of this engine also used a single port fuel injection system Honda called PGM-CARB, signifying the carburetor was computer controlled.
