You can bet that 400/427 block Ken built (bored +.130) was filled almost completely with block filler with very little if any water going through it.

4.25" bore X 3.75" stroke makes a 425.6 cube Pontiac engine.

A Chevy 427 is 4.25" X 3.76" for 426.7 cubes.

With a 4" stroke you'd end up with a 454 (Chevy).

Actualy guys it's 4.230 X 3.750 comes to 421 cubes(ironicly). Thats the motor in my race car that is for sale in the "for sale" section. And it started of as a 4.120 bore 400 block. So I am .110 over.

The 4.25 bore X 4 stroke = 454 ci I am putting in the for sale section. It's my Dads old motor. The one that did 10.06 at Pomona through mufflers and weighing well over 3500 Lbs with me in it.
