Silverback said:Actually 8.3 liters comes out to 506.4971 cubic inches.
Part of it is the fact that manufactures use it as advertizing. They sometimes alter the numbers a little bit make it sound better.
Or it could be that since 505 cubic inches comes out to 8.275467 liters, that they just rounded it up to 8.3 liters. Once again, it's marketing.
Don't you just hate engineers? :dontknow:![]()

TNVIPER said:Well, if you want to get technical...
(Bore x 2) x stroke x cyls x .7854 = cubic inches
(4.03 x 2 = 16.2409) x 3.96 x 10 x .7854 = 505.121873256 cubic inches
CI to Liters = 505.121873256 x .016386 = 8.27692701517 liters
So I would say you are correct in that the 8.3 L is rounded..
