well good news for you man the reality is the engine you have now the Block it'self is the same block they used for a 360/390/410 the only difference is bore and stroke and a 390 crank can be had at the parts house along with the correct rods and pistons...........the only pistons that wouldn't work would be those of the 427 and 428 specifically the 360/390/410 use the same bore I Believe when I check Oriellies had a crank for the 390 for $208.00 so it's really not that bad I think give or take 5 HP the 360 puts out about 210-215HP and 327-330Ft Lbs stock where as the 390 puts out 265-270HP and 375-380Ft Lbs upgrades will further improve that so really it's not too terribly expensive to go from 360 to 390.
