Pat, you know you want it, but are scared to fess up.

If you are going to do a 360, you should see how far you can punch it. Some will go to 4.130 and that is 428 size. Others will take a nice smaller diameter.

So you get your 360, tear it down and see what the walls look like.

Then you wash it down really well and haul it over to the machine shop and ask how big. They will give you a cylinder bore they are willing to punch it to.

take that and match up pistons. 428 pistons might work with a 3.98 crank. Or you can do that 4.130 x 3.78 and turn some Rs.

It is up to you.

Pat, you can have the engine for $100, it's okay.
