Preferably use the 302 block due to the amount the cylinder wall extends down into the crankcase. Actually you guys need to get on the case of all the stroker kit manufacturers and get them to make a 331 kit that use's the5.56" rod(400 chev) rod with a piston of 1.00" pin height. This would give a better rod ratio, & keep the piston skirt up on the cyl wall @ BDC as well as make the combo live in the 289 block. I prefer the 3.25 stroke motors over the 3.400. They just seem smoother and happier to run up in the high rpm's.
