FE block id's |

hey guys! i just found this board and it is great! good to know that other people share interests in FE blocks like me! unlike the majority here, i dont own a vintage stang or thunderbird with a FE! instead, i have old ford trucks (6 to be exact) my question is, most of them have V8s. how can i differentiate between a 360 or a 390? the people i bought them from can say anything but how can i know for sure? anything to look for?? i dont go by vin # codes because the cabs could have been changed (rust ect)!
moreover, my buddies laugh at me for wanting to 'hop-up' an FE engine! they say they are heavy boat anchors and are terrible to modify! on practically every one, i installed an edelbrock manifold, headers, 4 barrel carb(600cfms) and 2.5 dual racing bullets and they run just fine! am i wasting my $$ on a block that many frown upon? it is my understanding that FE blocks are highly sought after! help! |
