I found this Chevrolet Nova SS on Dragtime.com

http://www.dragtimes.com/Chevrolet-Nova-Timeslip-6603.html

Notice the engine size. Says 706ci. That equals to 11,570cc in metric system. It's no surprise the car did a 6 second pass.

However, the biggest commonly used engine has got to be the 572ci Chevy big block. That volume in metric system is 9,373cc which is biggest than anything you could find in production.

The biggest engine in a production vehicle, I believe, has to be the 8.4 liter W16 in the Bugatti Veyron. Viper's 8.3 liter monstrous V10 follows shortly behind, and then there is the Chevy LS7 V8 with 7 liters of displacement, used in the Corvette Z06.

Hope this helps.

The largest gasoline engines, however, are not found in cars. To the best of my knowledge, the largest gasoline engine ever to be mass produced was the Pratt & Whitney Wasp Major, a 28-cylinder 4-row radial, at 4,362.5 cubic inches (71.49 liters) and over 4,000 horsepower. Four of them powered the B-50 bomber, C-97 Stratofreighter, and Boeing 377 Stratocruiser, six of them powered the B-36 bomber, and eight of them powered the Spruce Goose. If there are larger gasoline engines, they've gotta be boat engines.
