GM Block
Most are Junk @ 4.125!
But,if i were to use a Stock Block,i would have it Sonic Checked!Good $$$ Spent,that way you know where the Bores are?

Try to keep the blocks to .030. You may be able to go more, have the block sonic tested over .030.

hink , the topic was for a sbc 400 ! bbchevy was the one who posted that 4.125 was max bore for a 400 sbc.
