180 degree. giving it a theoretical twice the rpm of a 4 stroke parallel twin

For 4 stroke engines parallel twin is compact needs only 1 cylinder head and potentially less valve train but I think they need more crankshaft counter balancing. its mostly a packaging advantage in my opinion.

The main parts of the reciprocating engine are the crankshaft and pistons. They reciprocate in the cylinder block.
engine block, piston, cylinder head, cylinder liner, camshaft, crankshaft, valves, crankcase/sump, inlet manifold, exhaust manifold, cylinder head cover
The location of the crankshaft position sensor depends on which engine the car has. If it is the 2.5L 4 cylinder engine the crankshaft position sensor is behind the ignition module. If it is the 2.8L V6 engine the crankshaft position sensor is on the side of the engine nearest the firewall and just above the pan rail in about the center of the block.
It is a 4 piston engine design.
