janiH,you came here looking for advice,i will tell you that the 360 head on a 454 is done at 4500 rpm,i don,t want to see you waste your money soooooo,pay attention,the 360 head is a loozer unless you install a stock 330 hp cam for low end torque but it will still be done at 4500 rpm.you are not the first guy who had visions of 450 hp with that head,that,s all i have to say about it ,sort of seems like you have your mind made up already.

Mike, You are correct about the 088 vs. 360. Almost anything is better than Peanut-Butter Heads.
Your expressed thoughts regarding advice are exactly as I was thinking I even went back and re-read post #1. It should be re written asking members for conformation of his plans.
Flow numbers and be darned, flow numbers never moved a boat post the dyno numbers.
This is where I say farewell and good-by to this thread.

you can lead a horse to water but you can not make it drink.if the op would listen he would realize that the 360 head won,t do what he wants.any shop worth a crap that has a flow bench already knows the 360,s limits.i will end by saying,good luck and enjoy your 375 hp engine,im out.

Heads and intake
I have a set of 088-head from my Mercruiser HP500 and also the Dart single plane intake. I live in Stockholm, Sweden so it’s not as far away from you. I could sell heads and intake to you for 800 euro + shipping. Send me an e-mail if you are interested [email protected], I could send you pictures and more info. Maybe I have the GIL exhaust manifolds to sell also
