Well 1 Cubic Inch is 1" Wide x 1" Long x 1" High
2.54 centimeters per inch
So 2.54 x 2.54 x 2.54 will give you the number of cubic centimeters in a cubic inch - ~16.39
There are 1000 cubic centimeters per Liter

Simplified- CI x 16.39 / 1000

302- ~ 4.95
347- ~ 5.69
351- ~ 5.75
460- ~ 7.54

Didn't everyone learn this in school
