6.0 bore ?
.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

Yep, stock stroke. Can't tell you how it runs yet as I just swapped it in yesterday. I still have to put the heads and accessories on. I'm sure I'll be posting a vid once I do get it up and running though

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

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.
