    If a 283 is bored to 4.00 and the stroke is left alone, the resulting displacement would be 301.44 cubic inches .......... a 327 has a 4.00 inch bore and a 3.25 inch stroke ............ 283's bored out to 4.00 aren't grenades if the bore job was done properly ......... that block is quite comfortable with that increase

    FYI, if it's a true 57 block it has no motor mount bosses on the sides of the block.
