well, this is the f.e. forum, and i love the 390 to death, so if you do go with th f.e., forget the performer and at the very least use the rpmseries if your wantin to haul ass.
try one of the repop 427 grinds for a cam, and throw in a set of 360 slugs.
port match the heads, re-curved ford (or your choice of aftermarket) dist., a nice 750-800cfm holley d.p. and a 2400 stall coverter. add a good set of headers and exhaust, slap in a set of 4:11 or 4:56 gears (depending on tire size) a nice shifter and kit and have fun!

 For a truck, I'd build up that 460 - lots of torque, cheap. [n/m] -- Mr F, 06/23/2003
