To find the CID, you need to know the *specific* GM 4.2L engine you're interested in (e.g., the engine code found on the engine block). Then, you can either:
* Look it up: Use an online engine database or a GM parts catalog with the engine code.
* Calculate it: While not perfectly precise due to rounding in the 4.2L figure, you can approximate it:
* Convert liters to cubic inches: 1 liter ≈ 61.02 cubic inches.
* 4.2 liters * 61.02 cubic inches/liter ≈ 256 cubic inches
Therefore, a 4.2L GM engine will have a CID *approximately* 256, but the exact number may vary slightly. You need more specific engine identification to get a precise answer.
