Dodge EGA specs: 201 ci (3.3L) 6-cylinder, 3.661 x 3.189 in (93 x 81 mm) bore and stroke. Rated 150-180 hp, 1990–2010. Used in the Dodge Caravan. OHV.
The Dodge 201ci (EGA) is oversquare — the 3.6614" bore exceeds the 3.189" stroke by 14.8% — a layout that favors airflow and RPM over leverage at the crank. The 3.189" stroke does not reach 4,000 ft/min of mean piston speed until about 7,550 RPM, so piston speed is not what limits this engine's revs — valvetrain and breathing are. Each of the 6 cylinders displaces 33.5 ci (549 cc).
26 factory variants share these dimensions, rated from 150 to 180 hp across 1990–2010.
