Depends what you want, but yeah, the 360 will feel stronger. At the end of the day, 42 cu in is 42 cu in and there really IS no replacement for displacement.

 If you want to go with a mid-90's magnum small block, I'd look for a 360. My old 1994 Ram with a 360 was more than half a second quicker in the quarter than a same-year 318 even though it only had ten more peak hp.
I would have to agree, however I found it much harder to find a 360, especially if it was one I wanted to hear running first. I ended up finding a guy parting out a dakota that was still running and half way complete so I went for that. Some say the mag 360's are notably heavier on fuel, others say they're very close. In the end even the mag 318 is going to have more power than an old LA 360.
