It measures the displacement (or combustion chamber size).

In theory, ALL things being equal, larger engine would use more gas but have more power. But in reality, due to much engineering, you can have small engine that have much more HP than larger engine. But there's some limit to how much a power small engine put out, before destroying itself.


good Luck...
