    An N/A RB series engine has about as much get-up-and-go as a lawnmower engine in your car. Has no power and even less torque.

    RB20E - single-cam 96 to 110 kW @ 5600 rpm, 167 to 181 N·m @ 4400 rpm
    RB25DE - twin-cam 140 kW @ 6000 rpm, 255 N·m @ 4000 rpm
    RB30E - single-cam 114 kW @ 5200 rpm, 247 N·m @ 3600 rpm

    Ecotec - single cam 152 kW @ 5200 rpm, 305 N·m @ 3600 rpm

    A company called spool or spool imports make a 3.4l crank for about 2.5k or a full forged kit for 6K.
