Close but no cigar, more like 1 liter = 61.02 cubic inches so the LS3 (6.162 cc) would be 376.00524.

Actually CI stands for "metric sucks and we don't want it".

Nice I am not the only one who gets the "English" style phrasing after watching that show.

I love when they call 4 doors 'saloons' and how coupe is pronounced coup-ay on top gear. Man that show is awesome. Even the cinematography makestheir episodes about any old car just beautiful.

Yeah, but how many full eye droppers is that?

Rodrunner · 01-16-2009, 07:55 AM

And if you raise the bonnet you can see the 376ci LS3. Well, at least that's what GM states the ci as in the Official Ordering Quick Reference.

I heart that show! Like you've said - the cinematography is too cool. I love it, along with the muscle they add; it's just a great package, I think. Too bad I can't find any DVDs so I could order seasons.

I'm sure there's an on-line conversion website that could calculate that, LOL.

Ok, here we go.. Volume = Pi*(D)^2*L*(# of cylinders) or Pi*(bore)^2*Stroke*(# of cylinders SO... a engine that has a 3'' bore and a 4'' stroke would be as such: Volume (displacement) = 3.141592654*(3'')^2*(4'')*8 = 904.8 inches^3.

1inch = 2.54cm (exact) - length
100cm = 1m (exact) - length
1000L = 1m^3 (exact) - volume
1L = 1000cc (exact) - volume

So a 302 inch^3 would the same as ... {(302inches^3 * )((2.54cm)^3)/1inch^3) * ((1m^3)/(100cm)^3) * ((1000L)/(1m^3))} = 4.948L (4948cc)

For those of you who are as detailed as I am when it comes to things such as numbers, please excuse the amount of significant figures. Hope that helps.
