Right, I know there was no factory production of an (1800cc Type 1) but I made one. Did the calculations and it's a little over less than 1 cc over 1800cc's and wanted to know if that is bigger than the Factory type 4 1800cc. Why? Because a lot of people are referring to their (74mm stroke X 88mm) Bore Type 1 engines as 1799cc engines (Why? Probably to distinguish them from the type 4's).
Were the type 4 1800cc factory engines 93 or 94mm bore?

According to Bentley, 93mm...so 66 x 93 = 1793 (Bentley states 1795 cc).

I was trying to figure out which engine had bigger displacement the 1800 type 1 or the 1800 type 4. Found this displacement chart below? What was the factory bore on the 1800 type 4?

A type 1 1800 will have a bigger displacement, because when we say "1800" for a T1, it really is 1800cxs. The T4 1800 was 93x66. The factory rounds up for simplicity.
