How to convert engine size????????

what is the formula for converting engine size to CID? For example, a truck I am looking to buy has a 4.8L V-8, what size is this in CID?

 

Luke Try SMOKEm UP .COM . Site has lots of info.

61 cu in = to 1000 cc or 16.38706 cc per cu in I hope this helps.

 

Here's a good online converter Skip. http://www.sciencemadesimple.net/EASYvolume.html

I used it to determine that 4.8L is equal to 324.615 tablespoons.

This one is good too...

4.8 X 61.02 = 292.9 cu. in.

Keep in mind that the 4.8 figure is only approximate. It has been rounded off. To accurately calculate actual displacement you need the bore, stroke, and number of cylinders.

 

What are common volumes of "measuring spoons" in a metric kitchen?
is a tablespoon still just a table spoon?

 

While we're on the subject..I have a 402 ci Big Block chevy thats been bored out again by .030..what would its displacement be now?

What are the bore and stroke measurements ?

 

What is the displacement of an un-bored swallow?

 

Would that be an African or European swallow?

Not a damn bit.....unless she's somebody else's bored housewife!

Hotrodphotos, the formula is: bore x bore x stroke x # of cylinders x .7854 = displacement.

hot rod photos to find displacement Bore times bore times .7854 times number of cyls times the stroke a 402 o30 over 4.155x4.155x.7854x3.76x8=407.85 or round off 408 I hope this helps
