Pretty sure the 350, 361, 383 and 400 are all B engines, except the
previously mentioned RB 383. They all have the 3.38"
stroke. The 350 was a 1958 only engine, the RB cam out in 1959 as
the first RB engine, pretty sure about that.

Just my 2 cents as
far as I know the 350 is a raised block and the 361 is a low block or a
(B) engine the 350 should be a (RB) I used my 361 crank with a 1970
383 block, but I would have liked to use a 400 but couldn't locate one
but the 383 is a ball. A 350 you can use a 440 to gain cubic inches.
