454 with .060 over pistons, how many cubes?
I am buiding my 454 motor with .060 over bore, how do calculate extra cubes? What size will it be, 470? Thanks for the info!

I believe it is either a 467 or a 468 (I'm building one right now). A good Internet site with lots of caculators, including a cubic inch calculator, is http://www.smokemup.com . :cheers:

Correct me if I am wrong but a 454 is 4.25" bore x 4.00" stroke.
.060 over means the bore becomes 4.25 + .06 = 4.31"
Displacent = displacement per cylinder x 8
displacement per cylinder = area x height = 3.14 x (4.31/2) x (4.31/2) x 4.00 = 58.33
(area = pi x radius x radius)
(height = stroke)
58.33 x 8 = 467 (approximately)
467 cubic inches
