Can't help with cams... But we swapped the 318 out and 360 in, with passenger's seat, door, and front wheel removed. Placing the jack stand to clear the hoist was a little tricky. Accessories, carb, exhaust, distributor and water pump were off. Water pump is LONG, has to be off.
Part of why the door, I didn't want to tear the A/C apart. The aftermarket unit was all done in hose, so I tied the compressor out of the way and left it charged.
Is this swap going to be one 360 to another 360? I ask because 318 and 360 use different brackets to the front motor mounts. Luckily I came across a parts van.
Either small block to a big block presents still more issues. Griff can go into detail. I'm just glad I didn't try it.
