is the value generally quoted as engine capacity the total volume of the cylinders or the total displacement of the pistons?

capacity is the sweep of the pistons. ie bore x stroke.

Im sure in one of your earlier posts you claimed to be a mechanic. WTF? Or do i treat that claim the same as a lot of the other claims on this list? Wink

Cheers
