You neeed to work out the standard bore & stroke, and use the formula pi x R squared. R is the radius (ie half the diameter of the bore).
That will give you the capacity of 1 cylinder.
The you do the same with the increased size.
Now subtract t |

OK, here goes.
Bore x Stroke: 97.0 x 86.0mm
Capacity: 3791cc / 231ci
Banging it all out on the calculator I come up with around 41cc more for the overbore.
Which equates to approx 3832cc
This converts to approx 234ci
