Default Diameter of bore

Here's something I'd like to know more about:

Given three engines all with the same displacement and same
carburation what's the pros and cons:

engine a = 8 cylinder short stroke - large diameter pistons
engine b = long stroke - smaller diameter pistons
engine c = 12 cylinder w/stroke and piston to match a & b above

What's the difference if heads flow the same?


Thanks
