401 crank in a 360??

[rpmrevs440]

I've come across passing refferences to this... unsure of where as of the moment but the basic question is... can it be done?

and if it can what would have to be done to make it work?

and AMC 360 blocks were the same all through the years right?

Thanks

basically yes the blocks were with some thickwebbing blocks (donahue and race blocks) hammer's site at www.froadin.com (http://www.froadin.com) under tech has an article on this swap, i never did it because i always had a 401 around.....do you have a crank goin out in your 360?

385 stroker, isnt it?

[rpmrevs440]

yes it works out to 385.. i was just curious as to how much work and money it will entail... looking to make more power for my truck i'll have another block shortly to mess with so i don't have to take my truck down to build a new engine
