Engines

The engine is the main factor in a car's acceleration. (duh!)

These are the engines available in Darkwind and their bulk:

Engine	Bulk	Weight
0.6L	10	200
1L	20	350
1.2L	24	420
1.6L	30	500
1.8L	35	550
2L	38	625
2L Rotary	38	625
2.5L	55	825
3L Rotary	60	1000
3.2L	60	1000
3.2L V8	65	1000
4L	75	1250
5L	95	1600
5L V8	100	1600
5L V12	105	1650
7L	135	2250
7L V12	145	2350
8L	155	2600
9.4L	185	3075

• Rotary engines are substantially tougher, and slightly more powerful, than their non-rotary counterparts. They aren't as good as a V8 or V12 though, which is expected given their lower bulk.
• An exposed engine will only take up as much bulk as the engine bay can hold. The excess bulk is exposed and therefore doesn't deduct from the chassis' available bulk/capacity.
• The 0.6L, the 3.2L V8, the 5L, and larger are rarely available from NPC vendors. They can still be acquired as loot or produced in player-operated camps. Rotary engines are camp-produced only and thus are never available from NPC vendors.
• The general consensus from the community is that the 3.2L V8 and the 4L are roughly equivalent in terms of power, but the 3.2L V8 is smaller and lighter.
