1m^3 = 1000l
(0.2*0.265 + 0.21*0.275) * 0.625 = 0.06921 m^3
so thats 69.2l
[Edit - miss read the dims....]

625 x 475 x 200 gives 59375000 mm3
625 x 210 x 76 gives 9975000 mm3
total = 69350000 mm3 = 69.35L
this is becasue 1 mm3 = 0.0000010L

Cheers folks, with the swirl pot it's gonna be a 72L fuel tank! should be enough for a 2.5L engine during something like the Birkett.

you dont say if these are internal or external dimensions,
if they are external, and you use 2mm thickness, it is about 3 litres smaller, 66.4l
