360 vs 383

I don't doubt it, but if built to take advantage of it's advantages like this 618 hp 361/412 it wouldn't of been and I'm sure you could do similar with a 360 but not because of smaller bore and valves, poorer rod and bore stroke ratios etc.. But in spite of them.

Factory 360 2bbl is a better platform than a factory 361 2bbl.
