What varies across the family

Stroke is constant at 3.6378" across the family — the displacement spread comes from bore, so these share a crank and differ in the block.

Each engine page carries rod ratio, mean piston speed, bore/stroke character and cylinder head specs where published, and links into the calculators with its dimensions already filled in.
