I ran the numbers (364799) and found nothing the only thing close I found is (364779) is for a 366 cid. "tall deck" from a '68 to '90 with a 4 bolt main.

yeah that was my mistake. It was a 779 not 799. So a 366 huh? thats a weird one. Are they worth to build up? Can they bored and stroked at all?

Car: 82 Berlinetta/57 Bel Air
Engine: L92/LQ4 (both w/4" stroke)
Transmission: 4L80E/4L80E
Axle/Gears: 12B-3.73/9"-3.89
It's got the 3.76" stroke but puny 3.935" bore. There isn't enough meat to bore it beyond the standard .060" over. Tall deck means it used 3 compression rings (a truck thing).

The stroke is the same as 396/402/427, so with rebalance, the crank may be reusable (to be honest, I'm not sure the journal sizes are the same). The rest is a good start on a boat anchor.
