I still hate it when they talk about domestic motors in metric cc's

makes me think I'm looking at a crotch rocket or a briggs and straton motor
Liters I can almost handle, but seeing the 454 all done in cc's and mm's was really disheartening. The worst part is that it had all of the American measurement in parenthesis like it was only somewhat important. It's a fucking 454! That sounds mean. 7800cc sounds wrong.
