361 Hop Up Options
No, I think you know what to do. It's a 361 cube engine. Being a "B" block, it has a slightly increased stroke. I would ignore it and proceed like it was a 340. Duster Don has a good idea as well. Good on the cheap performance without a doubt.
Take a comparo look below.

.008.................012......closer to a 340 again.
Just watch what our doing due to port size and valve size. Know what you have before you leap. It will act a little differently, but very similar.
