just curious really. seen quite a few old cars which seem to have comparitively small engines considering the amount of cylinders.

e.g. 1934 MG KN saloon available as a 1086cc inline 6

working out as 1.086/6 = 0.181 ltrs/cyl

just wondering what production cars had the biggest and smallest ltrs/cyl past and present.

not particularly worried about engine configurations and sizes "smallest production V6/V8" etc as i believe it's been covered. just pondering the ltr/cyl

for EXAMPLE the largest V8 might be 8 litres = 1ltr/cyl but could be beaten by say an 8ltr V6 or 12ltr V10 when it comes to ltr/cyl

ZesPak and LeoZwalf maybe one of you could somehow reword my OP. i know im not the most ingenius writer but i really didn't think it was THAT hard to understand...

IIRC "largest production this..." and "smallest production that..." was covered a while back
