Ford SCTi Specs: 3.445 x 3.272 in, 200-240 hp

See other engines in this family

Ford SCTi specs: 122 ci (2.0L) 4-cylinder, 3.445 x 3.272 in (87.5 x 83.1 mm) bore and stroke, 9.3:1 compression. Rated 200-240 hp. Rod ratio and piston speed.

The Ford SCTi is oversquare — the 3.4449" bore exceeds the 3.2717" stroke by 5.3% — a layout that favors airflow and RPM over leverage at the crank. The 3.2717" stroke does not reach 4,000 ft/min of mean piston speed until about 7,350 RPM, so piston speed is not what limits this engine's revs — valvetrain and breathing are. Each of the 4 cylinders displaces 30.5 ci (500 cc).

9.3:1 on aluminum heads is low by modern standards and generally happy on regular pump fuel.

It is one of 24 engines in the EcoBoost family, sitting between the 61 ci and 213.4 ci members. 2 factory variants share these dimensions, rated from 200 to 240 hp. Factory fitments include the Ford Mondeo, Ford S-Max, Ford Galaxy and 3 others.
