The difference between a v engine and inline engine is that in v type engine the pistons and cylinders are aligned in in a v shape and in an inline type engine the pistons and cylinders are all vertical or inline with each other.

Depends on the type V engine. V6, V8, V10. Also depends on the engine manufacture which you failed to list.

8 cylinder 5400cc v8

Its called a V-Tec

The V-type engine is a type of engine configuration or layout in which the cylinders are oriented in two rows or "banks", both connected to the same crankshaft.

If you were to look at a diagram of the the pistons, connecting rods, and crank, it would form the shape of a V, thus the name V type engine. The design allows for more power with less weight than an inline engine with the same number of cylinders.

In a typical V8 engine, there will be two banks, each having 4 pistons. The banks are inclined to each other at an angle of 30 to 45 degrees.
