RE: rods aren't the same

By McQ - 10/26/2003 12:24:24 AM; IP 63.191.224.6

The 360 rods are essentially the 352 rod aka as the "long" rod - 6.540" while the 390 is of the "short" variety - 6.488 which are commonly found in the 406, 410, 427, 428 passenger car engines.

It seems that many early 360's, I can say the '68 for sure, used the 390-4V piston with the "long"rod. Later 360's I've seen had the full skirt slug.

Remember there was a '58 361 Edsel big block. These had the future 390 bore of 4.05 with the '58 352 3.5 stroke crank.

This thread, so far...
