Bore times stroke times 3.14 times 8 = C.I.D.

.030 over 460 = 466 cubic inches.

It's (1/2 bore)^2 * pi * stroke * 8

Need CID info.

For those that don't understand scientific notation (^2 means squared) 1/2 bore times 1/2 bore times pi times stroke times number of cylinders.

Circumference is pi x diameter or 2 x pi x radius (Diameter = 2 x radius)
Area = pi x radius²
Volume of a cylinder = area of the base circle x height

Hope this helps.
Greg
