What would happen if i used the 327 stroke and a 400 bore? Theoretically i could still rev high and have some cubic inches also? Has anybody done this before?


I'd like to see that video!

lots of tq and hp could be made easier with a big block and still have a good long life. not sure if you'd be wanting to fit it in under the hood, but it would seem that this would give better power potential and still be able to last a while.

i really want to stick with the small block cuz the car is all original except for the engine. the more i think about it the more i like the 360 engine it gives me rev with cubes and torque. now i need to find a decent block. can a 350 block be bored that much over or is it too risky

a 350 block with a 3.5" stroke and bored .030 will put you a few tenths of a cubic inch under 360 I believe.
