[AT] OT: Calculating Cubic Inches

You need bore and stroke to get CID.  

I'm doing this from old geometry and brain cells....  

pi R squared * stroke * cyls = CID. R is 1/2 of bore, a 350 chevy is 4.001 bore and 3.48 stroke, so 

pi * 2.000(2) * 3.48 * 8 = 349.85  

60 over

pi * 2.030(2) * 3.48 * 8 = 360.42

It also changes the compression ratio a little, I think raises it, but my head hurts now....
