Didn't the 360 evolve from the 318?

It's all about what you have room for. If you can't have large enough weights on the crank to properly balance the engine, gotta do something.

Yup, or to pull cooling fans, radiator, (plastic!) intake manifold all for a rubber elbow on the PCV valve. There's all kinds if horror stories out there. Oh, for those good 'ol days when it was just an engine. (Am I dating myself here?)
