Does anyone here know why smaller recip engines make more power per cubic inch displacement than larger recip engines? Or why larger engines get better fuel economy than smaller engines of the same power?

That Americans developed the forerunners and perfected the synchromesh and the hydromatic transmissions (for their Sherman tanks which almost never broke down like British tanks, German, or Russian tanks... because of their badly designed power trains.)
 
That is what the Americans did for cars; OBNW. The Europeans copied Oldsmobile and still got it wrong.

12.9 at 110 MPH in the quarter with a change in tires! ( Still able to pull well over 175 MPH!)
 
'street legal.' What can run in New York may not be allowed in California? This IS true! But it is not significant as the differences are very small and easily compensated for.

Once again you don't know what you discuss, Stewie. But will you learn? No.

Vehicles that are 6 model years old or less are exempt from the biennial smog requirements for registration renewal. Evidence of a current smog certification must be provided by the seller except when transfer occurs between a spouse, sibling, child, parent, grandparent, or grandchild.
Seems you did not get even this wright! See above!

You know, it seems strange to me that you call me out for minor mistakes, but when I check, it is you who have failed to do your research!

It seems you are the master of the not relevant and stupid out of context quote. The smog requirements are not relaxed, you incompetent. 
 
You remain a liar, Stewie. Either make the proper citation or apologize for the bald lie.

You are right, that particular quote is not relevant! The highlight/quote function does not always work right in this website, SP, that is. have you failed to note this? The next PP has the required definitions in it and as I stated before, there is not a large or significant difference in the Smog laws of Ca. and the other 49 states! Certainly less than between here and Europe or Japan.

A  reminder of who Davies IS.
