I know the closest you get is 3 3/8 bore and 3 3/4 stroke.
But what if you destroke it alittle....

I believe Ol' Ron sings praises about a square motor. Hopefully he'll chime in on this.

Also, Barney Navarro ran an undersqaure (seriously destroked to I think somewhere around 189+/- c.i.) motor while he was trying to perfect his supercharging experimentation on the lakes.
