4.3/262
4.8/292
5.0/305

5.7/350
6.0/366
6.2/376
7.0/427

A general rule of thumb is 1 liter=61.024 cubic inches.

Re: Engine size?

when in doubt, google has a great little unit converter app right on thier search page if you search for "unit converter liters to cubic inches" or any other unit conversion variation.

Re: Engine size?

Well, just because the conversion math says that an engine is a certain size doesn't make it so...
They played fast and loose/close enough with the designations, and rounded them off anyway.

The new 99+ 5.3 is, but the old 327 rounds to 5.3

It is,

But the old 366 big block is also considered a 6.0 liter.

There are lots of overlaps when converting.
