Well, I think that the question is one more directed towards engine applications...Which would be cubic centimemters. It's the volume that piston displaces within the cylinder.
The determine the CC's of an engine you would need the bore size and the stroke length. Knowing this, and using this formula:
V = pi(r^2)(h)
Whereas V is volume, pi is 3.14, r is radius of the bore squared, and h is the hiegth of the stroke.
You can determine the displacement in CC's if you use bore size in millimeters. We tend to get lazy after awhile and let the computer programs do this kind of stuff for us.
