Gasoline is 3.599/gal for 87 octane around here.
So just curious, if one got a 318, could they bore it out to a 360?

That's what I thought. Has anyone tried boring a 360 out any further with stock heads?

stock heads would be fine, even better would be 2.02 valves. but for low end stock heads are better.

You could take it all the way up to a 390, if you wanted to. It'd be a lot cheaper and more practical to just find a used 360, however.
