1955 ford with 390 fe
By Bob Ward - 12/08/2002 10:03:51 AM; IP 208.165.227.81
Finally finished my vintage round track car with a 390FE. With the FE forum I was able to find the good heads c6 with the big runners. It's a flat top .030 over with the performer RPM intake and a 750cfm duble pumper holly. Found a FE distributer with dual point and roller bearings that can the dwell can be set through the window like the bow tie boys. Did all my oil mods from information off the forum also ran windage tray with remote oil filter. Did my own head work gasket matching and lite massage of the passages. Ran a 284/514 hydraulic with adjustible rocker purches off the FE forum. The motor is very torky in this 2940 pound car with the drive and full of fluids. Heres a picture. Thanks for all the help.
