but how does an inline 4, 4 stroke, gas, 16 valve application vs inline 4, 4 stroke, gas, 16 valve application differ?

Glad to see that we agreed that bikes and cars are totally different, however why did you bring it up?
An inline engine is long and narrow. In small cars in particular, a long, narrow engine mounted transversely can allow a very short hood. In an air-cooled engine, the inline configuration is sometimes harder to cool.
A flat engine is wide and flat. This gives it a low center of gravity.

You can find these answers on the Internet, why did you ask them? To see if I had the expertise of engines? Because your angry at me because I use grammer or something? Because I enjoy how reliable the Toyota Celica's 2ZZGE engine works?
