HI Stew

If memory serves me...

The Kombi 2l Owners manual states:

51.5 kw
4200 rpm max
143 n.m torque
94mm bore x 71mm stroke

It depends on what rotor you have installed. Type 4 engines come with a rev-limiting rotor and the limit is stamped on the bottom of the rotor if I remember correctly. But 4200 is OEM i think.

This one is 5400rpm

" Horsepower (or "HP") is the unit of measurement that describes the power of engines in various machines. However, there are various types of horsepower measurements, including the DIN HP (a version of horsepower that is measurement protocol in Germany) and SAE (which is the standard definition of horsepower).

While the two measurements are close, the difference is enough that it must be calculated "
