Toyota 5E-FE specs: 1.5L (91 ci) 4-cylinder, 74 x 87 mm (2.9134 x 3.4252 in) bore and stroke, 9.4:1 compression. Rated 93 hp, 1995–1998.
The Toyota 5E-FE is undersquare — the 3.4252" stroke exceeds the 2.9134" bore by 14.9% — a layout that trades peak RPM for leverage and torque low in the range. The 3.4252" stroke puts mean piston speed at 4,000 ft/min around 7,000 RPM, which is where a production bottom end is generally considered at its limit. Each of the 4 cylinders displaces 22.8 ci (373 cc).
9.4:1 is low by modern standards and generally happy on regular pump fuel.
It is one of 3 engines in the Toyota 91ci family, all of them 91 ci — the differences between them are in compression, heads and rating, not displacement. 4 factory variants share these dimensions, rated at 93 hp across 1995–1998.
