calculating piston dish cc?

Does anyone know the formula for calculating piston dish cc for a 2.92 x .210 inch dish.

Thanks.

2.92 X .210 = .6132 divided by .061 equals 10 cc's


But a more accurate way is to get a piece of plexiglass, drill a 3/64 hole in it and place the clear plexiglass over the dished area of the piston ( using some vasoline as a seal ) and a hypodermic needle filled with green rubbing alcohol. Inject the fluid into the dished area until full. Then read how many cc's you took out of the needle.

OK, thanks, I had another formula but wasn't sure if that was right, but it came up to 10.08cc's so that close enough.

Thats the way I usually would do it but I dont have these pistons, all I could find was the dish dimensions.

Thanks.
