We don't need to add confusion to this by arbitrarily picking different dimensions than what is given in the rule book "because the drive train and electronics have to go somewhere".
Ok; we'll do it your way.

29x33x24= 22,968 in3 = 13.29 ft3
23x25x36= 20,700 in3 = 11.98 ft3

Now they're different. Subtracting the drive train matters.
