I don't like it. I use the other formula.
It is not flawed , .... you just don't like it . "To each his own"....I think I said that already .

All you'd have to do is divide by 8 and multiply by whatever number of cylinders you have. This whole argument is dumb considering how basic the math is. If you don't know how to calculate cylinder volume, ask a neighborhood 12 yr old.
I held a little service with my half-built block today. Sat there and drank a beer, while I waited for it to finish assembling itself. Needless to say, I was disappointed in the results...
Or grab a slide rule (only if you are old).
Pffft dont need to be old to use one of those,i see sliderulers in good condition all the time in second hand stores.
I can honestly say, I`ve never used a slide rule in my life !

Bore X Bore X Stroke X .7854 X the number of cylinders. Right out of the NHRA rule book.
Yup. That's why I use it. It's good enough for NHRA
Don't rock the boat...We should ask Krooser to rename the thread in "How to correctly compute engine displacement".
This thread is like the Titanic... gone too soon!That boat already capsized. LOL
Bore X Bore X Stroke X 6.2832
Bore X bore X Stroke X .7854 X cylinders
Yep they fit...7 degree. We pulled several off the shelf until we found one that fit.Granted...... I’m looking at a pic on my phone...... so it’s probably fine...... but...... do those locks actually fit these retainers?
The retainers look like they might be for 10* locks.

I remember having a three sided ruler that made it easier to do complex math by providing all sorts of shortcuts and info... I barely got by 2x2=5 before I gave up.I still have one but I doubt if I could still play anything on it.
These are dual springs so break-in will be a snap.just set them up taller???
break in weth something else
