@@thatonegamer9547 depends upon what you want to do with it, but check out the stroker kit options. what's going to bite you is the exhaust setup--if you don't take out the mustang shock towers and replace them with a Mustang II setup, your headers are going to have a big turn right off the port. figure out what you're going to run for exhaust, and then design the engine around that choke point. i'll also just throw out there, Thunderbirds and Galaxies had different tri power intakes, if that's what you're running right now. the t bird ironically kept the carbs level, the galaxy had the 390 tilted. some bore and stroke a 390 out to a 428, and since the 428 CJ used the 390 Gt cam, make themselves a big brother CJ. There's a lot of ways to go with the 390.

390FE, the most under rated engines today. Free them up to breathe and it can take on engines slightly bigger. Good stroker kits and the medium duty 361 and 391 are some tough forged steel cranks, not cast. I've had them cut and taken down to 390 engines with higher performance at higher rpm. The crank done like this is stronger for more hp and higher.

The combination of the three on the tree and the the factory gears . This truck had so much torque. I never knew how fast it would go because the speedometer only went to a hundred. But it had no problem burying the needle. This was one of the most impressive engines stock I've ever seen.

In 1972 I bought a 1964 Ford Galaxie. it had a a 390 engine that came out of a 1967 Ford F-150. When I went to replace the brake drums, they didn't fit. I took the front drum to the auto parts store and found the car had what was called the 'police package' and the brake drums were from an F-150 pickup truck. so I bought those and brake shoes as well. It also had a posi-traction rear end with a 4.11 gear set. It was the best car I ever had. Unfortunately, I wore it out and couldn't afford to rebuild it. Since I was taking a 1500 hour course at a trade school for auto mechanics, I was able to do some tweaking to squeeze some more power out of my car.

I grew up with my father's 1967 Ford F250 Camper Special with the 352 Industrial FE engine, the transmission was a 4-speed manual gearbox with 1st being a granny gear, so we technically only used 3 forward gears, the granny was for loading hay and pullin' stumps. that engine burned through more oil than gasoline but always started even when it had a broken ring in the number 5 piston, didn't even scratch the cylinder wall. we pulled that piston, put in new rings, ball honed the cylinder, changed the rear main seal for good measure. put it back together and it ran perfectly. the only real problem that truck ever had was that you had to herd it down the road like cattle. the steering was that bad. it wasn't until my father told me to fill the steering gearbox with gear lube and it all leaked out that I found out that the upper sector shaft bearing was pulverized. I rebuilt the gearbox and the truck drove like it had power steering after that. It still had the best motor in it that I could imagine. that thing had no end to the torque it could make. I would love to see You Guys get a 352FE and see what it could do on the dyno, it may not make much HP but I would bet that it would make torque like a diesel.

I love to see that FE run again. Old engines should NEVER be thrown away unless the block is damaged beyond reasonable repair. You can ALWAYS restore/rebuild ANY engine if you want to and know how to. There is no engine beyond the point of getting it running again.

tony monastiere last 390 I drove was in an old Ford Louisville semi tractor with a 5&4. It was a beautiful thing. While I live in diesel class 6-8 truck world I still appreciate the old gas pots.

They always do everything possible to the Chevys but spend little time on the others. Nice to see that Fords and Mopars are great motors too.... 😊

If you are looking for an odd ball engine to do may I recommend the International 345. I have one in my Scout II and it is definitely unique.

About those 390 FE exhaust studs? one trick I learned long ago is to get the studs red hot & then quench them with water so they might just shrink a bit. Welding the nuts on is a good idea but try quenching them right after...Then spray a good penetrating oil on them. PS; a 390 Ford was the first engine I ever rebuilt. It ran fine!

I remember when HorsePowerTV did the FE build back about 20 years ago, they never finished it. IDK if that's an FE or FT because it came out of a dump truck, which could be a 391FT.

With the 390 if you had a bore scope you could look down inside there to see if anything was dropped in a cyl.
