what what does 3.8L mean?

Durr727

This means the displacement of our engines is 3.8 liters.
It has to do with the bore and stroke size of your piston and how much air it takes in when they turn and go from top to botton.
When the six pistons turn they in total inhale 3.8l of air.

thanks one of my friends has a S10 extreme and he wouldnt stop talkin about that because his truck is a 4.3L that it would beat my 3.8L so im going to race him tomorrow.

Durr727

Yeah the liters of your engine has something to do with it. The dispaclement gives an indication of how much power that given power can produce and so a 4.3l will be able to produce more power than our 3.8l but his weight pays a big factor.

And what year is his S-10 and what size engine. I dont think it has 4.3l. I'm pretty sure they only had around 2.2l-2.3l but I could be wrong.

hotcar

its a 2000 but ive done a lot of ixin up on my car that he doesnt know about.

Durr727

If its a 2000 Chevy S-10, your friend is ****ing bull****ting you.
They come with an 2.2l Inline-4 and only produce about 120hp/130trq. You WILL rape him if you race.

Durr727

haha, hey hotcar you should put down a nice sum of $$ green $$ if your friend acts like a douche bragging about his truck.
and i did a little more research and there is a 4l engine which produces about 180hp but you should still be able to take him no problem.

You auto or manual.

A lot of the 2000 models have the 4.3, but they're still weak. The stang should win pretty easily.

hotcar

Durr727
