Mitsubishi 4G63 specs: 2.0L (122 ci) 4-cylinder, 85 x 88 mm (3.3465 x 3.4646 in) bore and stroke, 9:1 compression. Rated 101 hp. Rod ratio and piston speed.
The Mitsubishi 4G63 is close to square: 3.3465" bore against 3.4646" stroke, within 3.4%, which splits the difference between a high-revving layout and a torque layout. The 3.4646" stroke puts mean piston speed at 4,000 ft/min around 6,950 RPM, which is where a production bottom end is generally considered at its limit. Each of the 4 cylinders displaces 30.5 ci (500 cc).
9:1 on aluminum heads is low by modern standards and generally happy on regular pump fuel.
It is one of 9 engines in the Sirius family, the smallest at 122 ci. Factory fitments include the Galant, Lancer, Chariot.
