RE: 352 / 390 1968 fe

Ok this is great, more info than I ever knew!! Some of this stuff is over my head, this is my first engin rebuild, i do not have the orignal motor or the tranny for the gal. So I'm kinda stuck with what the 68 ltd motor has, it has a 2 barl intake. The block is a cast of a 352, and I guess ford made it into a 390. this motor was pulled out of the ltd some time ago ( I had to beat a piston out with a sledge!!) I took the bare block to a guy who is going to (when I figure out what I want to do) going to dip the block, pressure test it, line bore it, and bore it out. I do not have any parts other than the stock stuff that came with the 390 that was out of the ltd, I have kinda no idea what I am getting myself into in a way. I kinda need a (do this, get this, and how to) I know this motor had hydro lifters I assume I'm going to stick with that set up, I was also going to go with rollor rockers?? But I think that is costly as well. I am building a car, I'm going to put some quite exast on it, make a sleeper, I want to be rid of the rice grinder and his fart can! I want the amarican pure power!

So with a little more insite on what I'm doin I think I need to pay e-bay a vist and see what is all there. 410 crank, and the orignal heads off a 65 gal.? and flat top pistons? This motor has had no work done to it, so it is all stock!!

Thanks,
Jason
