Lexus 2UR-GSE specs: 5.0L (303.9 ci) 8-cylinder, 94 x 89.5 mm (3.7008 x 3.5236 in) bore and stroke, 12.3:1 compression. Rated 467-471 hp. DOHC.
The Lexus 2UR-GSE is oversquare — the 3.7008" bore exceeds the 3.5236" stroke by 5.0% — a layout that favors airflow and RPM over leverage at the crank. The 3.5236" stroke puts mean piston speed at 4,000 ft/min around 6,800 RPM, which is where a production bottom end is generally considered at its limit. Each of the 8 cylinders displaces 38.0 ci (623 cc).
12.3:1 on aluminum heads is high for a production gasoline engine; running a ratio like that on pump fuel depends on chamber design and fuel delivery rather than the number alone.
It is one of 10 engines in the UR family, sitting between the 280.7 ci and 346 ci members. 2 factory variants share these dimensions, rated from 467 to 471 hp. Factory fitments include the Lexus LC 500, Lexus RC F, Lexus GS F.
