[edit] That's Impressive!
In comparison to the common 351 CI (5.8 L) Ford V8, with a 4.0 in. bore, 3.5 in. stroke, this engine has more than twice the bore size, more than 3 times the stroke. When using the industry standard to calculate an engines total cubic inch displacement would equal 16030 CI (262.6 l)
- 3.14 x R2 x stroke x # of cyl.
(R2 = ½ cylinder bore, x ½ cylinder bore.)
Wasn't sure if this information was suitable for the article but posted it here just in case someone was really interested.
