Interesting guide to engine types and where they have been used.
Just click on the table to see what your interested in.

PS - One thing I noticed was that the straight 6 is described as being inherently stable and not requiring balance shafts, but so far as I know the straight 6 3.0 diesel in my car has a balance shaft - what's that all about?
