Formula for calculating Engine Displacement

BORE (mm) X BORE (mm) X STROKE (mm) X  0.0031416 = Engine Displacement in CC’s

Example: 92 X 92 X 69 X .0031416 = 1835cc

To get the volume for one (1) cylinder in CC’s, simply divide by four (4).

Example:  1835 ÷ 4 = 458.69cc

Formula for calculating Deck Volume 

BORE (mm) X BORE (mm) X DECK HEIGHT (in.) X .01996 = Deck Volume

Example: 87 X 87 X .060″ X .01996 = 9.06cc

Formula for calculating Compression Ratio

(Head cc + Deck cc + 1 Cylinder volume) ÷ (Head cc + Deck cc) =  Compression Ratio

Example:  (50cc + 9.06cc + 410.25cc) ÷ (50cc + 9.06cc) =   7.95 OR 7.95:1

            Or:  469.31 ÷ 59.06 = 7.95 OR 7.95:1
