Do these dimentions really come out to 427 cubic inches?

A question for Bob in Ct: you seem to be familiar with the Ford Windsor small block engine family. What is the bore and stroke of the Ford 5.0 liter engine? Does it equal 5.0 liters?
I assume Ford has been fudging math results for decades.
All should note that bores and strokes published are ones that are hoped for at the manufacturing level. Actual bores and strokes can vary quite a bit and Ford even made allowances for the manufacturing variances with different size and weight pistons and rods.
