Very good Texan! I didn't think that anybody would get that so fast. That is right though the Lycoming XR-7755. Only two were made and featured variable cam and ignition timing and two=speed propeller drive. The project was started in 1943 and cancelled in 1945. Yes the displacement is also correct, I'm not sure about Metric measurement but the 7755 stands for the 7,755 cubic inches it displaces! Approx. 20 times more than your avergae V-8! Oh well a short lived engine facts question.

Nissan
Yeah Nissan has some good engines like the VQ30DE, but the best car engine they have designed is their 2.6 litter I-6 with twin turbos in their skylined....any car that weighs over 3000lbs and does 1/4 in 13 and can still turn deserves the credit =)

Saab Turbo's are the most fun engines, their 3.0 litre V6 is a GREAT engine with 200hp or so... I like the 2.3litre turbo, no 6, though.. saab was the first maker who used turbos so theyre the best at it

i love nissans VQ V6's but i think the rb26dett inline 6 from the skylines is my favorite engine.
i love the porsche's 3.6 flat 6's too, though, even without the turbo's. wow i guess i didn't establish any point or make any concrete decisions there did I? good 6 cylinders rule. you can get 8 cylinder hp, with 4 cylinder gas milage, and moderate to good torque bands

Hmmm, you can make very strong straight sixes power-wise, but structurally, they are weaker than V6 engines. I'm going to say horizontally opposed is my favorite.
PS: when I read I-six, I think of an I-head six cylinder engine.
