so from an earleir post would it be benificial to stroke a magnum 360 and use stock intake injestors ect . it sounds like id be better off saving the money and just going with 20 or 30 over pistons and a bit better cam and vavle springs from 3100 and maybe the 24 lb injectors and calling it good . probly same potential with out the 400 inch crank or am i misunderstanding this all together. running the 4inch crank rotating assembly im shooting my self in the foot by not having the heads on intake to increase flow .thanks again for helping

Over in I believe the archives there was a thread with many posters extolling the benefits of adding the 4" crank to the 360 though you do end up with a small big block but people are making them scream. the parts combo has to be spot on. Mancini had them for cheap $239(too cheap to pass up) & a guy gave me a righteous deal on a set of forged stroker pistons(thanks Ross). Not together yet but mag heads are the plan

Adding cubes will help a heavy street car/truck,but peak HP will not improve as much as the torque curve. Good heads with cubes is the best combo,but flow numbers are next to meaningless.

Dont bother using the beer barrel. Use the MP single plane EFI intake. I think with an MP computer you can run the stock injectors if things are kept mild. There are all kinds of issues using the factory PCM because Mopar won't release the code to allow tuning. Sorry, it's not really my forte...
