what is my displacement?

m_eclipse_96 · Oct 24, 2003

Hey guys, I have a 96 GST so obviously my displacement is 2.0 and as I under stand it displacement is the total volume of air and fuel that an engine is capable of receiving into all the cylinders in one cycle, so obviously by boring the cylinders you will increase the displacement. So what I did is I bored my pistons .020 over stock, so that would increase my displacement. so what would my displacement be since I bored the pistons over?

Actually your current displacement is about 1997cc.
Piston bore is 85.0mm and stroke is 88.0mm
0.020in oversize is about 0.5mm
Volume is (PI * R^2) * H
So a rough number would be 2020cc if I'm still awake.

I don't know, Steve. I bet most weedwackers have more than .02 liters of displacement... usually more like .15-.3

I was diggin for my radio manual and found the one for my weed wacker. 33cc (0.033L) displacement. .15 to .30 liter is small motor cycle size. ie: 150cc to 300cc. That would be a healthy weed wacker.
But the comparison was mainly intended for entertainment.

I have an old Cox airplane with a displacement of .020, but it's a two-stroke so that makes up for it.
The piston's the size of a pencil eraser. It redlines at twelve-and-a-half billion RPM. Max output is 3 gnatpower. I can't find the place where it says "Honda".

And don't laugh about the 2000cc weedwacker.... guys have built 454 cubic INCH chainsaws.....
