Vehicle Fitted

This dimension groups engines by the vehicle each one actually powered. Every internal combustion engine works on the same basic principle wherever it is fitted, since "the expansion of the high-temperature and high-pressure gases produced by combustion applies direct force to components of the engine," as Wikipedia explains. Browsing by vehicle fitted lets a visitor see which specific car, aircraft or vessel a given engine actually drove.
