If its the block alone, i'd say at least 800, maybe even 1000. Why don't you just finish it?
primarily no time ... i havent touched it in almost a year. being 3 hours away from the shop means i'm lucky to get 2 days a month to work on it

problem with .60 over is thats the max .. you cant really safely go any more. also .60 overs tend to overheat in my experience. theres a couple applications where .60 over is ok due to cooling situations but everything i ever saw of a .60 over 350 the bitch ran way tooo hot.

but that would be fun while it lasted. i have a 350 .30 over all ready to go together i found in the back of pops shop ... one a guy used as payment for another job, has everything it needs just needs assembly, so i might play with that

I need to check my paperwork but I am thinking I am .30 over...I forget.

I have run the engine and no heating issues at all using a stock FJ40 radiator at low speeds.

Anyways just thought I would try, always wanted to play around with a B18

.30 over is the most common overbore. i would imagine thats what you have. had a kid do a .60 over block for his mud truck ... thing overheated all the time. just like my dad told him it would.
