Al asked for advice on a 360 and people gave him their opinions. He asked and he received. If you like little 4's and 6's, that's your perogative, just don't bash others for expressing their ideas. BTW, do you want to race your 4 bangers against our big block FE's?

Al, you say you want to keep your truck "mostly stock." By converting your engine to a 390 CID, no one in the entire world could ever tell that the conversion occurred unless you told them or they tore the engine apart. The only other factor to consider would be that the VIN states the stock motor is a "Y" code when in fact you would have an "H" code motor if you converted. I've been in the same boat with my '68 F250. It has been in my family for the entire duration and was 100% bone stock with the exception of normal wear and tear items. I have spent a couple years restoring it in its original state, but the 390 conversion was a nobrainer...nearly costless HP and torque.
This thread, so far...
