The bore of an engine cylinder is the diameter of the piston and the stroke is the distance that the piston will travel up the cylinder wall. The displacement is the volume of space that the piston goes through. If the piston is 3.97″ in diameter and the

To calculate the total cubic inch displacement for an 8 cylinder engine, we need to use the formula: Displacement = (pi/4) x bore^2 x stroke x number of cylinders Where: - pi = 3.14 (approximate value of pi) - bore = diameter of the piston = 3.97 feet (converted to 47.64 inches) - stroke = distance the piston travels up the cylinder wall = 4 feet (converted to 48 inches) - number of cylinders = 8 Plugging in the values, we get: Displacement = (3.14/4) x 47.64^2 x 48 x 8 Displacement = 6.283 x 2271.4896 x 384 x 8 Displacement = 7325331.1232 cubic inches Therefore, the total cubic inch displacement for an 8 cylinder engine with a piston diameter of 3.97 feet and a stroke of 4 feet is \approx imately 7,325,331 cubic inches.
