larger motors and emissions

If you could barely not pass emissions with a cam of a certain size in stock displacement, if you added some cubes like a 350 to a 383 would that tame the cam a little and help you pass or does it not work that way?

I would think that there would be a little better efficiency in combustion with same cam/more cubes, but since it's still burning more fuel it will probably only take it down some not a lot. It seems like it might work, but the cam would probably have to make about the same powerband with the stroker as the stock cam on a stock LT1.

I certainly haven't tested it (I wish I could ) but it sounds like it could help, and I don't think it would hurt.
