  Just as a rough guess (not being at the aircraft this morning)  but if the 
main cyl is 1.5" diameter, and the rod is .375 diameter, then the difference 
would be  25% in both volume and power calculations- with a (another guess) 
stroke length of 18" this would be a difference of  4.4 oz of fluid- the nose 
cylinder probably adds another oz or so.
FYI;
1.5" equals 1.76 square inch, where as .375 equals .1104 square inch. (dia. 
squared X .7854).  This is a difference of less than 7%.
