Pull the flywheel inspectiom cover.
By Dave Shoe - 03/19/2002 7:13:44 PM; IP 12.2.11.131
If you pull the flywheel/flexplate inspection cover while the engine is near TDC, you can tell by looking at the flywheel flange.

The flange on a 360 has a large, deep "half moon" cut out of it next the the small square notch. This "half moon" is necessart in order to drill out the rear throws on the short-stroke crank.

The 390 will only have a square notch on the flange, because the longer throw allows the drill bit to clear the flange. You will sometimes see some "roughning" of the flange next to the notch, but this looks nothing like a huge honking moon.
