While the exact displacement of the 1968 Ram Air II engine is
about 399.95 CID, it’s a tough number to market by the factory.
To make it simple on the guys in the suits, the displacement
was rounded up to a nice even 400 CID. Notice the engine
displacement is also displayed in cubic-centimeters and liters, and
lastly the cylinder volume is calculated and displayed in cubic-
inches.
In this example, your 1962 Ford Falcon straight-6 engine has a
published engine displacement of 169.95 CID. The spec Bore and
Stroke are 3.5 inches and 2.94 inches, respectively. Calculate the
exact cubic-inch displacement by going to a larger Bore of 3.75.
Your calculator defaults to 8 cylinders, and since the 1962 Ford
Falcon only has 6 cylinders, you will need to change the number of
cylinders to 6.
