Christian:
I don't know if I answered your question.

Hi Christian:

I do not know if this helps, but the end result is that you multiply the cubic inch displacement of any engine by .016387 to get the liter displacement of the engine.

Mathematically,

2.54cm = 1 inch cubing both sides gives

2.54 x 2.54 x 2.54 (cm cubed) = 1 x 1 x 1 (inch cubed) which multiplies to:

16.387 cm cubed = 1 cubic inch Therefore,

454 cubic inches = 454(16.387) cubic cm This equals 7439.698 cubic cm

converting to liters 1000 cubic cm = 1 liter Thus 7439.698 cc = 7.439 L

Conversely, you can multiply the liter displacement of the engine by 61.03 to get the cubic inch displacement of the engine. (Go Blue is correct)

Safe travels
