350 .40 over how many cubic inches?
and easier to do on a cheap calculator since you don't have to remember and re-enter any numbers.Blazin72 said:Another way to figure displacement is Bore x Bore x Stroke x # of cylinders X .7854
It does the same thing that farna showed you but for me it's a little easier to remember.

If you then take that answer (which is c.i.d) and divide it by 6, you will get cc's or liters. For example a 350 c.i. divided by 6 is 5833333 or 5800 cc's or 5.8 liter.......A 400 c.i divided by 6 is 6666666 or 6600 cc's or 6.6 liter. About as close as it will take you without being perfect. 350 chevy's are usually regarded as being 5.7 liter.

To find cc's exactly, multiply inches by 16.387 Ex:350 times 16.387 = 5735.
Normally, to find the static compression ratio of a motor, we will use cc's to calculate it. We would therefore use the volume of a cylinder such as a standard bore 350 as follows: .7854 times 4 times 4 times 3.48 times 16.387= 716 cc's in the cylinder.
