Best Answer

Bore x Stroke x Number of cylinders = cubic inches.

Another contributor says: Wrong!

Right answer is: Bore AREA x Stroke x Number of cylinders.

That simply means that the piston or bore AREA multiplied by the piston's movement limit is the volume of each cylinder.

Multiply that by the number of cylinders.

For cubic inches capacity (or volume displacement) all units of measurement must be of course in inches.
