The New Holland TR-70 came with an FT engine.

The Sperry+New Holland TR-70 "Twin Rotor" combine could be ordered with either an FT engine or a Caterpillar Diesel engine. There is also a Versatile 125 four wheel drive tractor which came with the FT engine. I've got literature and tech manuals on both.

I think I found a couple other agricultural aplications for the FT, but I can't remember them right now (I've gotta get my books organized someday).

As for other unusual applications of the FE, boat manufacturers such as Chris Craft, Rayson Craft, Hatteras, Uniflite, and many others selected FEs at some time or another. I'm trying to track down a military application for the FE, too. I suspect Uniflite may have made a boat used during the Vietnam conflict which contained a 390 marine engine, but I don't yet have any verification. One thing is for sure, boats used 427 engines as soon as they became available for cars - it may not have been a special "marine" version, but they were popular for the sportier craft. It was also neat to learn that the 352 was also offered as a marine-specific option. I'd previously only known of the offerings which Steve Christ (I just learned it's pronounced with a soft-"i", in case you're wondering) had mentioned in his great book. It's nice to keep learning more.
