Call me stupid though, if it is made to 1/6 scale, then why isn't the capacity 1/6th of 327ci? I'm hopeless at maths so forgive me.

What an amazing piece of engineering! I wonder how well it would go in an actual model car.

Yeah that what I meant. That's still not 1/6th of 327.

Halving the size of a bore will reduce it's SURFACE AREA by 4 times, couple that with the fact that also reduce the STROKE by half. Start with a cylinder that is 10 cm dia and 20 high. Volume is 1570 cc. Another cylinder which is half the size 5 cm dia and 10 cm, volume is 196 cc. Certainly not half the volume. One eighth the volume. Peuty, It comes down very quickly hey, 327 at 1/2 scale is 40 ci, at 1/4 scale 5 ci and 1/8 scale .6 ci. Close enough anyway. Hopefully my maths is ok. Cheers M |
