wikipedia is wrong.

d15 have smaller mains (45mm i think)
d16/d16 have larger mains (48mm i think)

Ever wonder why D16's are always blowing headgaskets? It's because they have problems with sleeve movement (again, R/S is too low). Now go ahead and stroke that motor and increase the side-loading; sleeve distortion is only going to worsen.</TD></TR></TABLE>

I didn't know that that was why they were blowing headgaskets. I wonder if the d15b 1.62 r/s ratio is good enough

I came to the same conclusion


They still have some good information though. I didn't see any other mistakes:

It's certainly better than 1.52. "Theoretically" the ideal R/S is 1.75, but it's seldom seen because a slightly higher or slightly lower R/S will have pros/cons. It's really a toss up.

Personally, I think 1.75 is too high. I'd like to have about a 1.65.

when breaking down the physics of a engine (R:S) the otto engine is so flawed. It works but... I hate thinking about because it just seems so wrong!
