Hey, Im tripping over here. " Bore 70.61mm Stroke 81.28mm Capacity: 1274.8 cc " everytime I calculate it I get 1273.1 ccs. Are the british using some kind of different Pi? (3.14159265358979) (Bore/2)

Hi Guys It is normal for us Brits to round Pi up to 3.142 and then round up the answer as well! hey it's close OK! <grin> Regards John J Black Waterloo Drivetrain Systems http://www.waterloo-dtr.com

But Larry, he is calculating swept volume. The volume of the combustion chamber, dished pistons and gasket thickness etc, will effect CR but not swept volume; shouldn't make any difference should it?

Well his calculations are correct for the displacement/swept volume, However, the capacity of the engine, here 1274.8, is not the same thing. The capacity is measured as total volume, not the displac

Well Larry, that is interesting - not the way I would have expected. So in that case a low compression engine would have a larger stated capacity than its high compression counterpart. I guess the di

Chevy 350, 4 inch bore, 3.48 stroke. comes out to 349.988 cubic inches. Now that is acceptable. Displacement NEVER included head gasket, combustion chamber etc. It is exactly that, the volume a pisto

Think about and yes that is correct, how much the variance is, will change what the actual volume is. However for marketing purposes, why bother. For instance the 1274.8 is called a 1275, right. Most

I'm sorry Larry, but that can't be it. Just the volume in one combustion chamber is in the 20s of cc. Mine (increased a bit) are 24cc. On 4 cylinders, that would add up to almost 100cc, not the 1.7cc

What you're saying is that the total combustion volume, then, is 1.7cc. Divided by 4 gives 0.425cc per cylinder, and a compression ratio of 748:1. That's a nice number for a Ducati [displacement], bu
