Like what was said, it is the displacement of the engine in cubic inches. Larger doesnt necessarily mean more power.

Okay.
You want the truth?
Here it is.
That's how many Spartans there are under your hood.
Think of the engine bay as the Thermopylae Pass a.k.a. The Hot Gates.
Xerxes, is the Chevy that lives down the block, and he commands an army of Toyotas', Hondas', Nissans', Isuzus', and some Dodge Ram 50 mini trucks, that we'll refer to as the armies of the Persian empire.

Need I go on?

But seriously, that's the size of the motor in cubic inches.
