Thread: can i use 400 pistons

Tweet

350 and 400 pistons are different sizes. So, no. And a 383 stroker crank is a 400 crank.

400's use a shorter connecting rod. The 350 rods will push the 400 piston out the top of the bore. PLUS a .060 over 400 piston is way too big.

No you cant.

A stock 400 has a 4.125 bore with a 3.75 stroke.

A stock 350 has a 4.00 bore with a 3.48 stroke.

If you do the math it just wont work out.

Hey, size 12 women get into size 10 Levis all the time....just a little more push.

That's true, but they will still push out the top!

at the waist OR higher....former is bad, latter might
be good.....

I work at a university, and I see a lot of girls who push out above the waist as a result of jeans a size too small. And they often wear those short waisted tops that show the bulges in all their glory. You gotta just shake your head. Of course there are numerous others that make up for it!! Like my grand-dad once remarked, "I ain't so old I can't look." LOL!
