On my original engine, I was using a factory block and had to notch the bottom of the cylinders for rod bolt clearance on a 331, 3.25 stroke......

Cylinders are quite a bit thicker than a factory block, you can go to 4.125 bore with this block.......

i don't think the issue is with crankshaft clearance, it is the piston dropping out the bottom of the cylinder distance.
