Honda E engine

The E-series was a line of inline 4-cylinder automobile engines from Honda. These engines were used in the popular Honda Civic, Accord, and Prelude cars in the 1970s and 1980s. One notable technology was CVCC, introduced with this family, which allowed the company to meet strict emissions standards without using a catalytic converter.

The CVCC ED1 was on the Ward's 10 Best Engines of the 20th century list.

The EA-series is a water-cooled 356 cc inline two-cylinder engine replacing the N360's air-cooled 354 cc engine. An SOHC design with a timing belt (replacing the chain used in the N360 engine), the EA was first seen in the 1971 Honda Life. This engine was derived from the air-cooled engine in the Honda CB450 and was adapted for water-cooled application. The displacement was reduced to be in compliance with Japanese kei car legislation that stipulated maximum engine displacement. Bore and stroke were 67.0 x 50.6 mm. A version producing 30 PS (22 kW) at 8,000 rpm was installed in the Honda Life, while the Honda Z and the Honda Life Touring (introduced in May 1972) received a twin-carb model with 36 PS (26 kW) at a heady 9,000 rpm.

The ED series introduced the CVCC technology. This group displaced 1,487 cc (1.487 L; 90.7 cu in) and used an SOHC 12-valve design. Output with a 3 barrel carburetor was 52 hp (39 kW) @ 5000 rpm and 68 lb·ft (92 N·m) @ 3000 rpm.

USAGE: 1976-1978 Honda Accord CVCC, US market automobiles.

The EG displaced 1,598 cc (1.598 L; 97.5 cu in) and was an SOHC 8-valve engine with a 2 barrel carburetor. Output was 68 hp (51 kW) @ 5000 rpm and 85 lb·ft (115 N·m) @ 3000 rpm.
