its s stroker crank that makes the 350 a 364
Theoretically, yes.
A small block. It is the first motor squared, by Chevy, meaning it has a 4 inch bore, and 4 inch stroke.
You can get a 454 c.i.d. small block Chevy with a 4.185 in. bore and 4.125 in. stroke on an aftermarket block with a raised cam
bore and stroke a chevy 400 smallblock.
4.000x3.750 with 8.5:1 compression
The legendary 1969 ZL1 427 big block Chevy had a bore/stroke of 4.25" x 3.76" , while the newer LS7 small block has a bore/stroke of 4.125" x 4" , both of which feature aluminum heads and block .
The better machine shops can drill and tap the crank for you. Might be cheaper to buy a newer crank.
No. You would need to have the main journals turned down .200". Then it would fit.
The cam gear is on top/ and the crank gear is on top. Both at 12:00.
4.000 inches -- same bore size as a Chevy 350, the difference is a 327 uses a 3.250 stroke and the 350 uses a 3.480 stroke.
In the racing world, both drag and circle track, as well as 4X4's, and boats, it is common practice to put a 350 crank, 6 inch connecting rod, and a special piston, into a 400 block, making a 383. The 400 crankshaft has too long of a stroke, for high performance.
Check the head casting numbers and reference a book that details what casting belongs to what. The best way to tell is measure the cylinder bore. Chevy 350 has a 4.00 inch bore, whereas the 305 has a 3.736 inch bore. You can't tell from the crank, they have the same crank with the same 3.480 inch stroke.
