Finally, my first 360 and goals for it! I'll be asking a lot of questions.

Guys, like I asked before: Is there any reason to gasket match the intake side, the LD340 seem to be about the same size already?

Yeah, I only gasket match the 318 head intake port opening to the 318 gasket, not a 360. I also agree, hogging the exhaust exit port isn't the key, but I do clean up the casting around it on the inside, which may open it up a couple of thousands.

See above... has been answered. And I would use a sandroll to smooth things out in your head (meaning the 360 head :D).
