cubic centimeters ANSWER

Cubic centimetres when applied to an internal combustion engine refer to the "swept volume" of each cylinder, related to the bore and stroke (so the swept volume is worked out from pi times radius squared (remembering that bore and stroke are usually given in millimetres) times number of cylinders. This is then given as the "capacity" of the engine in ccs (technically under the Metric SI they are now written as cm3 (superscript 3 for cubed)).
