It will be fun to drive when you get it going...

With a stroke of 3.58", they make nice torque....

They have more stroke than an RB big block.... The RB has only 3 3/8" stroke (3.375"), compared to the 360 at 3.58"....

The stroke of an engine is the most influencing factor on the torque, speaking from a pure physics point of view...

That's why 360's are better in heavier cars/trucks than the 318/340... The 318 and 340 have only 3.31" stroke.... The extra stroke of the 360 helps it develop more torque....
