4.9 L 210 HP Turbo V8 4V HUH????
I want to know about my car, but I don't know a thing about cars! Streets gave me a ton of links to find tech info about my engine...I read it...but I don't get it! I think I understand the Turbo, but I don't know what the heck Litres and HP V8, and Valves mean... Can ya tell me...SPEAK VERY SLOWLY...and in terms a 6 year old could understand...what those things mean and how to compare it to other engine types etc.????

4.9L means that your engine displaces or pushes 4.9L of air/fuel with every 360 degree rotation. Valves are in your Heads. 4V per cylinder is supposed to flow better than 2V per. 210 HP means that you have a solid but not overly powerfull engine. You should be able to smoke a stock v6, but other V8s are going to waste you.Last edited by drg84; 08-01-2004 at 12:01 PM.

Well I've sure gotten old too so don't worry about it! I've had two bypass surgeries, new knees, fought prostate, cancer and diabetes. I'm half blind, can't hear anything quieter than a jet engine,...
