I read the article in the tech archives, and they were using the Mopar P4452757 cam that specs out with 248/256 advertised duration and 0.410"/0.425" lift 110 LSA. That is a very mild and nearly stock cam. A stock 360 cam specs are 252/265 duration and 0.410"/0.412" lift.

The stock 318 engine in my 1986 W150 has the MoPar P4452759 cam, 260/268 duration, 0.430"/0.450" lift and it run pretty good.

My first 360 RV engine was built around 1979, and it was a basic 0.030" over with 9:1 compression flat top pistons, reconditioned stock heads, a mild Crower Baja Beast cam (I think it was about 210 duration @ 0.050".) That engine had headers, dual exhaust, a Holley street dominator single plane and a Holly 600 DP carb. That engine performed very good, and it semed to pull well from idle to 5,000 RPM.

I just freshned up another 360 I built a few years back. The engine used the KB232 Quench dome pistons for about 9.5:1 compression, AeroHead 360 heads with the 2.02"/1.60" valves and hardened seats. I did a mild porting job on the heads too. Originally I had a Hughes HE0914AL Cam (I think 208/215 duration @ 0.050?) and the recommended single springs/retainers.
The engine used the standard Edelbrock Performer intake that was gasket matched to the 360 port size, and at the time I was running an Edelbrock 625 cfm AFB carb. This engine ran pretty good too, but I wanted more power so when I fresheded up the engine (re-ring, new bearings, etc.) I installed the Hughes HEH1523AL cam that specs out at 215/223 duration @ 0.050", 112 LSA, and 0.501"/0.539" lift using Crane 1.6:1 rocker arms.
I also installed a Holley 670cfm Truck avenger carb, and Crane HI-6 ignition. Once I got the carb tuned the engine was running very strong.

If I built another 360, I would probbably just use a flat top piston like the Speed-Pro H116CP.
The KB232 takes too much machine work, having to narrow pin width on the rods to 1", and mill the block and heads to get the correct quench.
I think I would also use the magnum style heads.
The magnum heads require rocker arm oiling through the pushrods, but that is no a big deal.
That Hughes HEH1523AL cam is really nice for torque and performance, but if you want torque and economy you may want a slightly smaller cam.
