Larger Engine in 1968 Cardinal

Larger Engine in 1968 Cardinal

Does anyone have any thoughts on putting an O-360 (fixed pitch prop) in an older Cardinal that currently has an O-320 in it?

I cruise about 133 mph true, right now, normally.  If I were to put an O-360, the cost seems HUGE, and it would bring me, what, 10% more airspeed at 20% more to operate (+ the cost of purchase and installation)?

Please help me think?
