just rad the article on the homepage here and i was trying to calculate my displacement since i am need of another trorque converter,   the formula in the article goes like this
bore x bore x stroke x 0.7854 x 8
4.60   4.60   3.480    0.7854 x 8   this brings me to 462, i called and asked my machine shop and they said it was 361. the handy variable, is it for chevy what,not sure, anybody else have a better method of finding ut displacement just with the engine facts.

The formula they show is correct, it sounds like you have a .060 350, right?
If that's the case it would be:
4.06 x 4.06 x 3.48 x .7854 x 8 = 360.42274
