| RE: what is this engine? |

The easiest way to find out the stroke is to get a 10 or 12 inch piece of white house wire (any gauage will work) and a magic marker. Pull a spark plug and stick the wire into the cylinder holding it vertically.
With the coil wire off, have some one crank the engine while you lightly push the wire towards the bottom of the cylinder. The wire should ride up and down the top of the piston.
Now use the magic marker to mark the wire as it goes up and down. The length of the mark is the stroke of the engine. 3.5 inches for the 352 and 360; 3.78 inches for the 390, 406 amd 427; and 3.98 inches for the 410 and 428.
A pencil will work also. Let us know what you find out. |
