360 pros & cons vs 318

in the cars I have had, stock 318 2 bbl vs stock bigger chamber plus dished piston 360, there hasn't been enough difference to really notice the "advantages" of a 360.... Ive put a couple 318s in place of 360s (because of what was available at a given time, mostly) and in the cars I am talking about there really wasn't enough difference in "get up and go" to matter. Stock, the 318 couldn't even 1 wheel peel and neither could the 360..... then you get into the 80s with the "advertised" 8.something to 1 360s that were actually sub-8 to 1.... most 360s I have had have been gas thirsty pigs. though I have never had the chance to try and improve on one..... which IMHO the best improvements for a 360 would include dumping the dished pistons for flat tops that are at least close to zero deck, for starters.
