I'm bored. I don't want to know how many cars you have, that's been done. What is your Cylinder Quotient (the number of cylinders, functioning or non), that you own? 
 

My CQ is 22. 
 

Bonus points if you calculate total displacement! 
(cc, litre, or cid are acceptable)

For me, it's 756.6 cubic inches.

Do you want advertised displacement or actual?

Yes, SWMBO vehicles count.

Either. 
 

 

38 cyl.

Over 20 liters.

 

So, almost the total displacement of the Fiat S76 four cylinder, then?

45 cylinders, something approximating 23.233 liters.

(This does include small equipment engines and engines not currently in any automobile)

4x12= 48 plus 6 = 54 just for the Jaguars. 4 for the Honda 8 for the pickup.=66 8 in the big boat 4 in the pontoon =78  4033.3  cu in 37950.3 cc 

 

Do you count air compressors? Another 4   Nail guns 6. Chain saws 2   (I used to have 50 V12's here. That's 600  but I scraped all but 3  so they don't count).

I may be missing an outboard or three.  In fact, I know I am cause I have some junked part motors I didn't consider 

6 cyls are 1000ci, rest probably only adds a max of 200 more.  I'd have to actually research what they are.

Really curious as to the total displacement of that mess you've got...

Mine would be 8 if you count nailguns & air compressor.

5 for ICE only.

4 for cars only.

Amateurs.  90 cylinders and 50 liters.  Some vehicles don't have engines.  This actually pointed out to me how many don't.  I need to work on that.

I only have 8 with a total displacement of 3800 c.c. I once owned 46 (only one car had more than 4), and many times I could only go home for dinner if I had a running customer car. Hunger cured me.
