Google found two items with some specifics on optional 361 CID engine:

1. Engine 361 Ford Industrial 159 Horsepower 435 flbs torque at 2800 RPM. (This doesn't indicate what year, but 435 footpounds of torque sounds good.)

2. The following is a later year with higher horsepower and less torque, but the bore and stroke data should apply for any 361 engine:
Ford 1970/71/72 V8- 361 2 BBL 4.05 X 350, 7.2 to 1 compression, 210 hp @ 4000 345 fp @ 2000.

Also, talked with fellow who has a 1967 Travel Home. He says engine was Ford industrial version, 400 CID, and came with roller-type lifters and camshaft. He's sending me photos which I'll scan and post or forward to Tom for his registry of known Travel Homes.
