Question 360 question

I have a 360 and a 318 crank sitting around. My question is does anyone know for sure if this will work ok? If so what would it do to performance. Basically anything you can give me would be great if you have questions about the block or crank just ask I should be able to answer them.
Thanks,
Jared

The 318 crank wont fit in a 360. The 318, 340's share the same crank journal size, but the 360 has a much larger journal. You'ld need a special stroker crank t do a 360 engine.

You wouldn't have a 360 crank that you'd want to sell would you and if so how much?
Thanks,
Jared

Even if the journals were the same size, the stroke of a 340/318 is 3.313 compared to the 3.58 of the 360. You would lose major compression and cubes...
You could look at the listing in the classified for the 328 short block I have. Need to move it and it's already done....

How much would you want for the 328??? I'm guessing that's a 318 bored? Also I was kinda wanting low compression as I'm going v8 with the sole purpose of diving into boose. Wanting to have a TT Dart So I knew to even get it to run I may have had to run high compression pistons just to achieve low compression, but let me know on the short block you have. Also any info you may have as far as projected compression and all that good stuff.
Thank,
Jared
