as far as i can tell filling the block isn't necessary. it really isn't that much different than a 383. its only 13ci bigger. when you think about it, you bore a 350 .060 and its a 360 that's 10ci. I'm only going .030 and the crank and rods themselves are clearanced. I shouldn't have to do all that much. from what I have researched that would only be necessary if I was going to go higher than .040 bore, but I'm only going .030. Again, its an idea, not set in stone. i have to see what the spring brings and how money goes then
