Aurelia

The first-generation Aurelia engines were produced from 1950 through 1967.

The 1.8 L (1754 cc) 1800 was the first V6.

2000

The engine was expanded to 2.0 L (1991 cc) for 1951's B21 Aurelia. Bore was 72 mm and stroke was 81.5 mm.

A 2.3 L (2266 cc) version was also produced.

2500

The largest of the original Aurelia engines was the 2.5 L (2451 cc) 2500 introduced in 1953. It was still undersquare at 78 mm bore and 85.5 mm stroke.
