When I think of size, I think of displacement only. Are we talking dimensions? The LT1 is smaller at 6.2L than a 5.0L Coyote. Are we talking about configuration? A 2.0 Synergy V8 has more cylinders than an I4 K24, but less displacement.

My point, there are many ways to build an engine. An undersquare engine could have a shorter stroke than an oversquare engine with the same displacement given a difference in cylinder count, which means the undersquare engine could have a higher redline, if valvetrain, piston weight, and all other factors were a constant.
I guess I should say same configuration and size. Does what I say make more sense when looking at it that way? Again, this goes back to the OP's video saying it is oversquare for throttle response.
