Toyota 1AZ-FE specs: 2.0L (122 ci) 4-cylinder, 86 x 86 mm (3.3858 x 3.3858 in) bore and stroke, 9.6:1 compression. Rated 148 hp, 2001–2003.
The Toyota 1AZ-FE is exactly square — 3.3858" bore and 3.3858" stroke are the same — which splits the difference between a high-revving layout and a torque layout. The 3.3858" stroke does not reach 4,000 ft/min of mean piston speed until about 7,100 RPM, so piston speed is not what limits this engine's revs — valvetrain and breathing are. Each of the 4 cylinders displaces 30.5 ci (500 cc).
9.6:1 is in the range that usually runs on pump premium.
It is one of 6 engines in the Toyota 122ci family, all of them 122 ci — the differences between them are in compression, heads and rating, not displacement. 3 factory variants share these dimensions, rated at 148 hp across 2001–2003.
