The 359 also had larger intake valves. It was a different casting.
One of the chief problems of a massive overbore on one of these blocks is that you'd end up with very little holding the top and the bottom of the engine together. Notice on the left below the waterjacket that there is only the cylinder wall itself connecting the crankcase to what is above.
