What is actually same ...
----Overhead cam =- same
----Connecting rods =- same
----block =- same between the Efficiency and Productivity series.
----crank =- same between the Efficiency and Productivity series.
----injectors =- same
----Intake valves on head =- same
What is actually different ...
----head =- different (due to different exhaust valves only)
----pistons =- Performance AND Productivity series has the different (due to slightly different compression ratio) than the efficiency series.
----block =- Performance series has Slightly shorter and heavier than the one used on the Productivity/efficency series engines.
----crank =- Performance series has Slightly shorter and heavier than the one used on the Productivity/efficency series engines.
