Even in the UK we usually express in litres not cc's, however that would still be wrong as it should be 5700cc's, lose the decimal point otherwise it has a smaller engine than scalextric car!!
I looked at that and thought you guys would appreciate the artistic qualities.

He isn't stupid. That is just how the rest of the world expresses numbers. Americans are backwards.
Most countries express displacements in CC's (litres * 1000)

5.700 cubic centimeter = 0.347835341342 cubic inch
5,700 cubic centimeter = 347.8353413415 cubic inch
That's a 347.487506000158 difference.
So, the rest of the world expresses numbers by placing the decimal point in the wrong place?
Mathematically implying they have a 0.347 C.I. motor, and not a 347.835 C.I. motor?
And ignore the fact that mathematically there's 347.4875 C.I. missing from their intended amount?
Decimal points, commas, who cares where they go?
I'll pitch that to my employer, and tell them on my next check to move the decimal place over 1 to the right, exclaiming it's how the rest of the world expresses numbers.
I'm not trying to be an ***, I'm just trying to apply logic and rationality to this, which there seems to be little. lol
Btw if 5.700cc = 347.83ci (According to the rest of the world.)
A = 347.83ci
3800cc / 5.700cc = 666.6666667~cc
So, 666.6666667~cc x A (A = 347.83ci) = 231886.6666667ci
I now, according to the mathematics and logic of the rest of the world, have a 231,887ci / 3,800L (3,799.947 to be exact.) V-6 sitting in my car. And it says 1887 in my c.i. so that makes it even more godly.
I'm going to sell this mod soon on ebay to all the ricers, with a certified sticker for them to place on their car of course.

The LT1 tail lights are used because we have to have orange indicators so as to differentiate with the brake lights. Unfortunately the LS1 lamps can't be dismantled whereas the LT1 lamps can so that an amber lens can be fitted. It would then make it legal without slapping on extra lamps which unfortunately some idiots do.

Ugh, it says 5.700 CC's

5.000 is five thousand
5,700 is five point seven
$5,700.00 is the normal way right?
Try $5.700,00 that is five thousand seven hundred and no change.

Try searching some european sites or thinking in €'s all day long. That would be fun.

That is true. In fact it is illegal in the USA to have amber lamps on the rear so people can tell what way the car is facing in the dark.
However, alot of American cars have been coming out with amber turns on the back and no one has said jack.
