The MeMZ 965 was a Soviet automobile engine, built by the Melitopolski Motor Plant (MeMZ). Originally known as the NAMI-G (for the Soviet National Automotive Institute),〔Thompson, Andy. ''Cars of the Soviet Union'' (Haynes Publishing, Somerset, UK, 2008), p.369.〕 the MeMZ 965 was designed for use in the LuAZ-967.〔Thompson, p.90.〕 It was a air-cooled 90° V4,〔Thompson, p.90.〕〔''ZAZ-965/965A'', Avtolegendy SSSR Nr.17, DeAgostini 2009, ISSN 2071-095X, 〕 producing .〔Thompson, p.92.〕 It had had characteristics not common for automobile engines, including a magnesium alloy engine block, accessories mounted high (to assist in case of crossing rivers), and a rear-mounted oil cooler.〔Thompson, p.90.〕 When the initial MD-65 engine proposed for the ZAZ-965 proved inadequate, the MeMZ engine was selected, thanks in part to it being air-cooled, like the successful VW Type 1's boxer engine.〔Thompson, p.89.〕 It would be developed into the MeMZ 966〔Thompson, p.200.〕 and the MeMZ 968.〔Thompson, p.201.〕 The MeMZ 968 was offered in the ZAZ 968M in three performance levels: E (, carbureted, low-compression for 76-octane fuel); GE (, dual carburettor); or BE (, 8.4:1 compression, for 93-octane).〔Thompson, p.203.〕 In addition, the 965 would serve as a prototype vee-twin (half an MeMZ 965), for the prototype NAMI 086.〔Thompson, p.203.〕 == Notes == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「MeMZ 965」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
