    There are some variables:
    What Head Gasket R U using ?
    Piston Deck Height?
    Cylinder Head Chamber Volume?

    a 350 bored .060 becomes a 355, takes a stroker crank to make a 388

    350 + .030 = 355
    350 + .060 = 360
    350 + 400 crank = 383
    350 + .030 + 400 crank = 388
    Objects in the mirror are losing

    Hey viking, seeing as we are getting technical,....

    350 + .030 = 355
    350 + .060 = 360
    350 + 3.75 stroke (400 crank) = 377
    350 + .030 + 400 crank = 383
    350 + .060 + 3.75 stroke crank = 388

    So,... to answer your question chevyspazz388, a 350 .060 over will make a 360 cu inch motor.
    Objects in my rear view mirror are a good thing unless,.... they have red and blue lights flashing.
