Is there a preferred year/model 360 engine to easily swap into an early mopar from a 273/318?

They're all about the same to physically install...need the 360 specific oil pan, harmonic balancer, and the special balance weight on the torque converter or flexplate. and a driver's side motor mount.

If I were picking one, the dodge truck 360 magnum or an early 70's 360. The magnum will make the most power but would likely require a bit more parts swapping, which is not a big deal.
