To determine the cubic inches of a 4.8-liter Chevy motor, you need to convert liters to cubic inches. There are approximately 61.02 cubic inches in one liter. Therefore, a 4.8-liter motor would be:
4.8 liters x 61.02 cubic inches/liter = 292.896 cubic inches
Based on this calculation, a 4.8-liter Chevy motor is closer to a 305 cubic inch engine than a 350 cubic inch engine.
