    B93733B-4 K20A3 5.453 1.890 0.780 0.866(22mm) 0.780


    First number is the length. (the only difference between the two)
    Second number is the bottom end or BE bore. (the larger end that connects to the crankshaft)
    Third number is the BE width.
    Fourth number is the PE or pin bore. (smaller end of the rod that connects to the piston)
    Fifth number is pin width.

    Intake Valve - 34mm
    Exhaust Valve - 29mm

    I'm just doing some research and found this compression calculator:

    http://www.bsperformance.com/compcalc/compcalc.htm

    So it seams the F23A1/4 has -13,6 cc piston dome displacement and the F23A5 has the -18cc's as listed above.

    Maybe important for some

    I guess so. I believe the A5 was never in the coupes, only in sedans.

    So you guys have an idea of what PE Bore and BE Bore are and for anyone that doesnt know what a rod looks like.

    PE Bore - end that attaches to the piston

    BE Bore - the end that attaches to the crank
