Cubic inches?
Liters?

I'm not sure what the exact equation is but there's a mathematical formula to find the volume of a cylinder---- multiply that by your no. of cylinders and you've got it! Or use metric conversion for cc's to cubic inches---- roughly 60.4 cu. in. per liter. Hope that helped

Both. Depends on the car and year of build. Liters are usually whats used now adays, but every so often you'll get a car listed under cubic inches.

I still prefer to use cubic inches, however either will work. If you want to convert, 1 liter = 61 cubic inches.

In volume of cylinder displacement. You can measure it in cubic inches or liters, or any cubic measurement . 1 liter equals 10 x10x10 cm, = 1000 cm3. An inch equals 2.54 centimeters. so a cm. = 1/2.54 inches.

Both. Determined by the maximum volume of each cylinder, multiplied by the number of cylinders. You can use inches, and end up with cubic inches in your answer, or you can use meters and end up with liters as your answer. Just memorize both for your car.

both, 60 cubes per litre... take the engines boreX3.1417XstrokeX#of cylinders=displacement
same formula to figure cubic inches or cubic centemeters.
