    if im not mistaken the bore on a 360 is the same as the bore on a 390 just the strokes are diffrent. those pistions should work fine. its hard to say whhat your compression is going to be but i doubt it will be very high. why not use the 390 you have out of the galaxie
    Honda Motor= 1.6L
    Soda Bottle= 2L

    AND yes your 390 crank will fit in the 360 using the rods and pistons you have if you bought 390 pistons originally. I doubt that using the 360 crank will give you much compression because of the pin placement on the 390 pistons. Compression distance piston pin to top of piston: 360 (1.825) 390 (1.775) At least that's what my book lists.
