Dyno'ed My 360..it's a pig..what next?
I agree, like I said, stock valves don't flow well compared to good HP aftermarket valves. Problem is there don't seem to be any good 1.88 intakes anymore. Might as well go with a bigger intake. 2.02 may not always be the answer. Stock Magnums are 1.92, and I have had great luck in the past with the Chevy 1.94 intakes as well.
I did a test years ago with a stock 360. Just a mild build, ran it with the stock valves and a stock type valve job. Took the heads off, popped in some 2.02's w/HP valve job, and MILD bowl blend. Changed nothing else, picked up HP and TQ all thru the rpm band. Peak to peak was around 20 hp/tq, but in some areas under the curve it was 30+.
