Dodge Hurricane High Output specs: 183 ci (3.0L) 6-cylinder, 3.307 x 3.543 in (84 x 90 mm) bore and stroke, 9.5:1 compression. Rated 550 hp, 2026.

The Dodge Hurricane High Output is undersquare — the 3.5433" stroke exceeds the 3.3071" bore by 6.7% — a layout that trades peak RPM for leverage and torque low in the range. The 3.5433" stroke puts mean piston speed at 4,000 ft/min around 6,750 RPM, which is where a production bottom end is generally considered at its limit. Each of the 6 cylinders displaces 30.5 ci (500 cc).

Static compression of 9.5:1 on aluminum heads is moderate for the displacement, which is deliberate on a boosted engine — the turbo supplies the rest of the effective ratio, and static compression plus boost together set the fuel requirement.

It is one of 2 engines in the Hurricane family, all of them 183 ci — the differences between them are in compression, heads and rating, not displacement.
