Power limits of stock 360 block and crank.

I think you're missing my point. I'm not arguing that the 360 is a better or more durable engine than a 340, I'm saying that I like 360s better. If 340 cores were cheap and easy to find then I would likely go that route. Also realize that with the heads I'm talking about using I probably will not exceed the power limits of the 360. I can get Magnum 360s for dirt and LA 360 for dirt plus a dime so that's another factor.

I think maybe you missed his point , he was steering you to the thread that covers this topic in great detail from all angles and every opinion . This is one of the most asked questions on this board and it has been answered every other month since the beginning of FABO so now most guys simply direct those that won't use the search function to the thread that covers the topic best .O:)
