Would you care to elaborate? Googling "in phase diagram" only returns results about this phase changes from solid to liquid, or austentic phases of steel...

The power under the curve is the same, that is the curve shown above when people talk about power under the curve, is it not?

Source -- I'm an engineer. The only other time I've heard of phase is when it is used to describe any reciprocating function -- control theory, acoustics, electrical etc.

Edit -- Do you mean the uneven power strokes desired in MotoGP and the cylinders having different phases to each other? The 'big bangers' etc? I hardly think that's relevant to an 8-cylinder engine in a car.

They are the same crate engines which are available now.

Matching engines that operate in different rpm ranges is eminently doable IMO.
