6. Bore (engine) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bore_(engine)

   Engine displacement is calculated based on bore, stroke length and the number of cylinders: [1] displacement = π ( ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ × bore ) 2 × stroke × n cylinders. The stroke ratio, determined by dividing the bore by the stroke, traditionally indicated whether an engine was designed for power at high engine speeds or torque at lower engine ...
