Variants

Series 71 engines have a basic engine designation, such as 8V-71TA. The first number refers to the number of cylinders in the engine, followed by "V" for V engines, or if not present, it is an inline engine (whether in an upright or laid-over installation). The designation continues with a hyphen, and "71" for the nominal displacement per cylinder in cubic inches (about 1.2 L).
