HP Per ci
Hi
I was wondering about fuel consumption and other factors after looking at different engine ci - power possibilities.
Eg:
2 identical cars, both at 650hp.
Car 1: 428ci (stroked 351 small block) = 1.5 hp per ci.
Car 2: 360ci ---------------------------- = 1.8 hp per ci.
Which of the 2 will be a more efficient engine in terms of street cruising and which would be more efficient under wide open throttle (racing)?
Which would have better acceleration (flatter torque curve)?
