It is an all-iron engine (block and heads) with two valves per cylinder. It retained the 4.25 in (107.95 mm) bore diameter of the old 7.0 L (427 cu in) and 7.4 L (454 cu in) big-blocks, but the stroke was increased to 4.37 in (111.00 mm) for a total displacement of 495.95 cu in (8.1 L).

The 400 saw extensive use in full-size Chevrolet and GMC trucks; K5 Blazer/Jimmy, 1/2-ton, 3/4-ton, 1-ton, and even larger 'medium duty' trucks had an option to be equipped with a 400. The engine was available in midsize A-Body and full-size B-Body passenger cars until the end of the 1976 model year. Early models produced 265 hp (198 kW) with a ...
The Buick V8 family can be divided into two sizes, big-blocks and small-blocks (block size classification refers to the engine block's bore spacing and external dimensions, not displacement). All 1953–1966 Buick V8s and the 1967–1976 "big-block" engines shared a 4.75 in (121 mm) bore spacing. The small-block was produced from 1961 to 1981.
And for a brief time in the early 1980s, a version with a smaller bore diameter that displaced 255 cubic inches (4.2 L) was produced as Ford struggled with emissions and fuel economy. In response to the Chevrolet Camaro's success in the SCCA Trans-Am Series, Ford engineers developed a new racing engine from the small block. The first attempt ...
Both used a single two-barrel carburetor. In 1964 when the new "A" body intermediates came out there was a new corporate (GM) engine size limitation to anything less than 330 cu in (5.4 L). and so the 326 bore size was reduced to 3.72 in (94.5 mm), giving a true 326.06 cu in (5.3 L).
Bore and stroke are 3 + 13 ⁄ 16 in × 3 + 5 ⁄ 8 in (96.8 mm × 92.1 mm) for an overall displacement of 331.1 cu in (5.4 L). This engine features an oiling system which uses a central cast-in passage between the lifter galleries feeding oil to the cam and crank by grooves machined into the cam bores.
