I like the short stroke/big bore combo. This B line of big blocks act like a BIG small block.
The 350 B was a 1 year only deal, so, no, I’d rather do a 361 between the two. I like the way it looks on paper from the B&S to the head and valve sizes. Between the whole B engine line, it would be ether the 383 or 400. Though getting a slug for these, the 400 even more so, is hard to find to a custom ($$$) made. You might as well go for the cubic inches.
2 years back on the main blvd., I ran into a father/son team in a Monte SS (86-ish) with there 383. We got to a quick BSing. They didn’t know Chrysler made a B 400. Pops knew of the B 383 since he was in his late 50’s, but I was surprised he never head of the 400.
