NOTES:

[A] Bore .030-inch over size.

[B] 4.001-inch bore [350-block] / 3.750-inch Stroke [400-crankshaft]

[c] 4.031-inch bore [+.030 350-block] /3.75-inch Stroke [400-crankshaft]

[D] Dished Pistons.

[ ] Check clearance when using large valve heads on a small bore block.

[ ] Typical dish volume for 350-cid dished piston is 17 cc.

[ ] Typical dish volume for 400-cid dished piston is 24 cc.

[ ] Production tolerances may create chamber volumes as much as 2-1/2 cc difference.

[ ] All compression ratios in this table were figured with:

Head Gasket 0.036-inch

Deck Clearance 0.020-inch

Flat top pistons unless noted.
