How many cu. in. 455 .040

If 455 that's .030 over is 462 and .060 over is 468, how many cu. in. is .040 over bore?
Would it be 463 or 464?
I know stupid question but I am bored at work slow day for me.

I would say because when I had a 455 30 over same as you 462, so 40 over has to be either 463 or 464

Come on guys. High school geometry


4.165" bore (4.125+.040), 4.25" stroke, 8 cylinders


[PIx(4.165/2)²]x4.25x8=463.23227427

I thought maybe there is a unknown element in the formula because everybody here on CO is calling their .030 455 a 462. That's why I asked.

I do a little of everything. I'm an Estimator/Project Manager/Engineer for a bridge demolition company. Kind of an early retirement job (50 hrs a week & very little travel) after working as a bridge construction project manager/superintendent for 25 years.

That's impressive. Both the current one and the previous.

I modify Toyota assembly lines as the models and the desired capacity/vehicle
on each line change. I'd love to blow up a bridge though.

Working in the automotive industry would have been my first choice. I started out as a mechanical engineer but wasn't smart enough for things that moved. Civil was a fall back career. (never regretted it though)


We do implode a bridge once in a while (CDI is the explosives subcontractor we generally use)




Buildings too:




Generally we take them down with big hammers and shears


(kind of got off the subject, didn't we )

Indeed we did. Great videos though.

Ahem *cough* (adopts a sonorous southern politician voice) There is no REPLACEMENT for DISPLACEMENT.

Carry on.

Sorry, but this is pretty basic high school math, and since everyone here is using a computer, there's a calculator built right into it (not to mention Excel).

Computer? There's a calculator built right into your phone.

Also, you can Google arithmetic problems, and you will get the answer.

It was a good exercise in learning html too

squared =&#178 = ²

and

PI =&#960 = π


(although I thought pi looked too much like an "n" so I didn't use it)
