displacement is the sum of the volume of all the cylinders. you can increase this by either stroking the motor (increating the height) or boring the motor (increasing the radius).

the formula for cylinder volume is v=pi(r^2)(h)
therefore displacement=pi(r^2)(h)(c) where
r=bore
h=stroke
c=number of cylinders
