Yup. the 390GT got the same intake as any FE.
By Dave Shoe - 01/04/2004 4:45:02 PM; IP 216.243.176.34
The 390GT got a neat carb , a neat air cleaner, a neat cam, and neat valve springs, but was otherwise about the same any non-performance FE, which is pretty damned good.

Add some headers (make sure they port match the head type, as this is an improperly documented issue which has only been properly described in FE forums) and an intake (CJ, PI, Sidewinder, RPM, F427, etc), and the 390GT will outperform a stock 428CJ.

Do a forum search for "port mismatch" or "weld bead" to find info on header mismatch issues wit hthe FE. C6AE-J, C6AE-L, C6AE-U, C6AE-Y, C7AE-A, C8AE-H (also C8AE), and D2TE-AA head castings have one type of exhaust port, whereas C6AE-R (randomly found on 1/3 of 1966-67 FEs only), CJ, 427, and 1958-65 heads have another type.
