400 Stroker Question

I was looking over at the Ford Racing site & noticed that the 460s have the same main journal diameter & was wondering if someone could drop a 4.3" stroke crank or bigger into a 400 with the right rods & pistons.

A 460 crank won't fit in a 400 block due to the cylinder bore spacing. There are stroker cranks available for the 400 using offset ground rod journals. You can buy a 4.2" stroker crank for a 400 which'll get you +/- 434 cubes depending on the overbore.
