Default 351 Bored?

I am curious to what the displacement comes to if you take a 351windsor bore it .060 over and how cautious to i have to be as far as how thin the walls are?

I do believe it is 357.

with a 4.000-4.060 bore and 3.850 stroke it's 393
with a 4.030-4.060 bore and a 4.000 stroke it's a 408
with a 4.030-4.060 bore and a 4.170 stroke it's a 427

the more metal you leave the cooler it will run and be more endurable it will be, so be conservative.

There is plenty of wall on a 351 block,there not like the 302's.But 60 over is alot,I would stay in the 40 over range to be safe,if you can.

well since its already .060 over i wouldn't skip on a good oiling/cooling system. if youre gonna do it, do it right so you dont have to tear the motor apart again to do the same thing and spend more money. take it from me cause i did the same shit.
