ALL pre mag 360's had 1.88 and 1.60 valves, EARLY 360's 71-73 castings were
based off the 340 block and can go .100 overbore if you have it sonic tested,
they also have either '915 or '587 casting heads which are very easily opened
up to 2.02 intake valves (340 intake size). In the later 70's they got a
smog version of the 587 head which had air injection into the exhaust port,
this is easily removed by drilling and tapping the hole for a 1/8" allen head
plug, if you don't do this and you run headers you will have an exhaust leak.
