300.0849303 cu. in. = 4.92 Litres, not quite 5.0 litres, but I'll let it slide this time.
What's interesting is that a true 302 = 4.95 litres, while the actual calculation comes to 301.5928947 = 4.94 litres. I guess Ford just decided to round up and make it a nice 5.0.

******....page 2 spoiled me! lol...i was about to mention that everyone is technically a little off when they call it a 5.0...cuz like eric said, its not quite there...
and half of you cant spell cAmAro....lol...
but some of those questions are really funny...lol...but i remember how dumb some of my questions were when i was a little younger and knew NOTHING about cars...you shouldn't roll your eyes at em completely, cuz if everyone who i asked did, i would still no nothing instead of a little something
...my theory is, explain dumb questions only once to people...if more than one person asks such a stupid question, then roll your eyes at em
damn this board comes up with some great stuff to laugh about..
