judz,

Sorry, I cannot follow your math.

You say your 29G is 3200 cm^3?

That would be approximately 14.75 cm x 14.75 cm x 14.75 cm, which is an equivalent of 0.85 US Gallons.

Equally, 5400 cm^3 is approximately 17.55 cm x17.55 cm x 17.55 cm and 1.43 US Gallons.

Something is off.

But let’s assume that 29G is the equivalent of 3200 (whatever) then 5400 would be approximately 49G.

Ingo

EDIT: Haven't had math in school for quite a while, sorry if I should be off
