Could this be a 4.125 X 4.00 SBF ?

Sounds right based on 351 W block

Isn't that what the 428 Windsor is now?

4.080X4.100 for the 428.

Is it rated at 275 HP?

425 HP, same as the COPO Camaro. Same bore and stroke, the Ford has a longer rod. Wish I had either. Dyno

I was comparing the 2010 352 @ 285 hp vs. the 2013 363 @ 330 hp for the SS/GT classes.

The 2010 has a bore/stroke of 4.060 x 3.400
The 2013 has a bore/stoke of 4.125 x 3.400.

Everything else looks the same.

Using the .070 allowed overbore rule, a 2013 looks like it could also run as a 2010.

Taking a 4.125 and a .060 over bore per the rule give you a 4.185 bore with a bore spacing of 4.380 this only leaves less than .200 between bores not a lot material for head gasket seal.

The 327 COPO has over a 2 to 1 rod ratio.
