.030 over is no problem, on some 6.0L blocks you can do .060 over but you need to sonic check the block to make sure .060 is safe.
if you go .030 over with the stock stroke you get a 370ci setup
on a .060 bore and stock stroke it would be a 375ci setup
if you go .030 over with the stock stroke you get a 370ci setup
on a .060 bore and stock stroke it would be a 375ci setup

You on stock stroke then? How's that sucker rev with the extra bore?

Awsome...keep us posted.

FYI, simple CI calculator
((Bore)\2)^2*(3.14)*stroke=displacement
derived from
Area of circle = pi(r)^2 where pi~3.14
volume of cylinder = Area_circle * length
bore = diameter = 2*r
Hope that helps future "ci" questions

Is it true that boring an LSx block near the 0.060" over mark, would warrant
recentering the bores?
What is the major thrust side thickness after 0.060" over bore on a stock LSx
engine?

the iron blocks are great for FI or juice applications due to the extra strength.

I agree.
Plus if you have it 30 over and something minor happens you can always bore it a little more.

Yeah, I know. And a much cheaper alternative to get some strength and some extra cubes.

Here is a copy oy my last blocks sonic test. I offset the bores to get maximum wall thickness. Thrust sides are all pretty thick, but the pin side on the inner pistons is where it can get thin.
