Childens Repair Manual will list the code stamped on the engine or the number/letter of the VIN to determine what the engine size is. The VIN number will only work if the engine has been changed and neither number will be right if the engine has been bored out. To determine CID on a disassembled engine: radius of cylinder bore squared (times it's self) multiplied by pi (3.14) times the stroke. This will give you the displacement of one cylinder. Multiply by the number of cylinders and you will determine the total cubic inch displacement (CID). Don't call the dealer for this info unless you need it to buy a part from them.

It should be written on the engine tag [On the hood or the core support} which is sometimes been removed are hard to read. The easiest way is to write down the VIN # a seventeen digit below the driverside wiper blade and then call the dealer. If that doent do it there is also a tag that is supposed to be in the glove box either on the door in inside the box that has lots of #s and letters on it and the dealer should be able to tell yopu what to look for there. When calling the dealer ask for the parts deparment.

1 liter is 61 cubic inches. 1000cc is 1 liter. example; 2.0 liter honda is 122cubic inches. 2.8 liter chev is 172 cubic inches. 5.9 liter dodge is 360 cubic inches. if you are talking automotive, there will be an emissions sticker under the hood in the engine compartment stating what size the engine is. anything since 1981 will show engine size in liters. hope this helps.
