Lexus 2UZ-FE specs: 4.7L (285 ci) 8-cylinder, 94 x 84 mm (3.7008 x 3.3071 in) bore and stroke. Rated 235-270 hp, 2003–2009. Used in the Toyota Land Cruiser.

The Lexus 2UZ-FE is oversquare — the 3.7008" bore exceeds the 3.3071" stroke by 11.9% — a layout that favors airflow and RPM over leverage at the crank. The 3.3071" stroke does not reach 4,000 ft/min of mean piston speed until about 7,250 RPM, so piston speed is not what limits this engine's revs — valvetrain and breathing are. Each of the 8 cylinders displaces 35.6 ci (584 cc).

It is one of 8 engines in the UZ family, the largest at 285 ci. 7 factory variants share these dimensions, rated from 235 to 270 hp across 2003–2009.
