Honda D16A1 specs: 1.6L (97 ci) 4-cylinder, 75 x 90 mm (2.9528 x 3.5433 in) bore and stroke, 9.3:1 compression. Rated 113 hp. Rod ratio and piston speed.
The Honda D16A1 is undersquare — the 3.5433" stroke exceeds the 2.9528" bore by 16.7% — 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 4 cylinders displaces 24.3 ci (397 cc).
9.3:1 on aluminum heads is low by modern standards and generally happy on regular pump fuel.
It is one of 19 engines in the D-series family, sitting between the 82 ci and 103.7 ci members. Factory fitments include the Acura Integra.
