" I still wonder if the 4.0 isn't -really- 3 7/8" x 3 7/16" - 3.875" x 3.4375"

" Standard bore is indeed 3.875"! Most pubs round it up to 3.88", 
" including Chrysler's/Jeep's. The metric specs are rounded to a single 
" decimal -- 98.4mm x 87.4mm -- which comes out to 3.87401575" x 
" 3.44094488", so you're correct in surmising the stroke is close to 
" 3-7/16". 3.4375" is 87.3125 mm, so it's a bit larger than 3-7/16", 
" but not 3-1/2" (88.9 mm). 3-31/64" seems to be about right in English 
" fractional units...

but suppose the stroke was rounded to 2 decimals -before- metric
conversion?  3 7/16" -> 3.44" -> 87.4mm...
