At first we thought this story was going to be easy because the engine builders will be doing all the work. Then we woke up and realized the truth. the engine builders are doing their part making this story work well, we still had work to do. For our second part of the B-Series Shootout we decided to go over the different builders' approaches. While you might think each team would blueprint and assemble the engines in an identical fashion, we can tell you that each builder is actually going about the build up in very different ways. We were shocked as well. Working within our guidelines is the key to success and is part of their processes. for the most part each builder is excited about the project. When we did the Q&A for this segment we were able to get the views of each of the engines as well as the builders' opinions about their competitors.

Dynamic decided to stick to a larger bore and stroke. Not only does this change the rod ratio of the motor, it also changes the displacement of the engine. End result of their short block will be a total displacement of 1996cc.
The piston is an off-the-shelf CP unit with a compression ratio of 11:1, however, Dynamic did decide to go with a Peak ring set rather then the CP rings. Also in the Peak line up is a set of H beam rods. According to Omniman, "We tried to stretch the limit in obtaining the optimal displacement using off-the-shelf parts."
