The formula is bore x bore x stroke x .7854 x number of cylinders in case you want it for later.

SBC
 
In the old days I had one of those, but it was a 377.

I think a 348 is with a 3 1/4" stroke 327 crank.

.060 over 400 block!? better fill it with block filler and pray.

Wow Prater... from reading your next thread about methanol questions, and revealing you are running dirt modified circle track, I have to strongly agree with garyc about "hope and pray" on this 60 over engine, especialy because you cannot block fill a circle track engine and keep it cool. 400s are already notorious for overheating and cracking, even on methanol. I have built and raced many circle track engines, including 400 blocks, but 30 over is about max for a GM 400 block. You probably want to start thinking about a backup engine to have ready...
