My stock stroke mild 360 build ;)
I built basically the same engine a few years ago for a 78 powerwagon, with a np435 3.55 gears and 28" tall tires.
360 Mag, KB 107 pisons, Eldebrock 58 cc mag heads.
The cam I used was a Comp HR262, that cam had a great sound, and pulled fantasitic in the old truck.
The reason I used the cam was to bleed off compression.
Ended up with tons of bottom end torque, and decent power on the top end. It was a really all around engine.
I ended up with 10.81 static, but 8.71 dynamic, with around 175 psi. It would run pump gas fine, but when I pulled a heavy trailer I would always dump in 5 gallons of 110.
This is what comp said the cam would act like on their desktop dyno, the engine basically acted the same way.
