Compact Extendable Fuel Engine Platform [2020]

Description
Note: this is a repository of several engines that I found and some that I built.

Credit: Sea_Kerman, Draba (probably), Senpai-Kun, The n00b A, Scott, and myself.

All of the engines are 3 blocks or less on one axis and extendable. The start is the part lined with a blue block, segments are green, and the ends are red.

Coloured sticks allow you to quickly find engines with different PPM values. Red have low PPM and high PPV, yellow are average, and green are high PPM and low PPV.

There are no pure superchargers on the platform because at small sizes you are most likely better off using a smaller turbo engine at higher load than a bigger supercharger engine at low load. Do note that superchargers are competitive with turbos at larger sizes, but this is not what this platform is about.

READ THE LUA BLOCKS FOR DETAILS!!

IMPORTANT NOTE: For fair comparisons, I tidied the exhausts and capped the engines in a similar way across the board. It is possible for you to make better caps for your vehicles and get improved performance from it. Almost every engine benefits from being longer as well.

IMPORTANT NOTE 2: PPM = Power per material, higher numbers mean the engine is more cost-efficient.
PPV = power per volume, higher numbers mean you get more power in a smaller space.

Enjoy!

@AvianAviator Good point, I'll add it to the description. PPM means power per material and PPV means power per volume.

I'm a big noob, but learning slowly. I cant seem to find it on the wiki, but what does ppm and ppv mean? I assume ppm is power per meter or material or something but honestly i'm a bit stumped.

Please let me know if you find engines that are better for the same size, I will gladly update the blueprint and give credit.
