Liter or Litre is the displacment of the engine in metric measurements. A 5.0L is the same as 302cid, and 4.6 is approximately 281

Pretty sure it's the overall space/displacement in the pistons.

To quote a definition:

Engine displacement is defined as the total volume of air/fuel mixture an engine can draw in during one complete engine cycle; it is normally stated in cubic inches, cubic centimeters, or litres. In a piston engine, this is the volume that is swept as the pistons are moved from top dead center to bottom dead center.

1 liter = 61.0238 cubic inches
