Thread: cubic in

For future reference the way to figure cu in from liters is

Ex. 5.4L = 5400cc
2.54cm per inch
So take 5400 divided by 2.54 which =
2,125.984251968504 then divide that by 2.54 which = 837.001674003348 and finally one more divide by 2.54 which = 329.5282181115543. Which rounded up is a 330

You divide by 2.54 three times to make it a cubic measurement.

Another way if you know bore and stroke is to figure 1/2 bore squared (radius) X 3.14 X stroke X amount of cylinders.
For example my motors bore is 3.64" and the stroke is 3.49" so....

1/2 of 3.64 = 1.82
1.82 squared = 3.3124
3.3124 X 3.14 = 10.400936
10.400936 X 3.49 (stroke) = 36.29926664
Then 36.29926664 X 6 (V6 motor) = 217.79559984. Rounded to 218

Which if you reverse the earlier equation is roughly 3572cc rounded to 3.5L

Sorry for the long rant post I'm just a big fan of math lol

I'd have to think back a long way for calc lol. That other stuff is just geometry and algebra which I use at work every day so it's at the front of the ol brain.

Pretty much
