I was wondering if i could get your opinion, i have a 352 in my 65 f100, and every time i start it it makes a grinding sound. I give it a couple good revs and it seams to die down and sometimes go away. It also comes back if i stop at a stop sign or light. I was told it could be my starter gear not recessing all the way and hitting my flywheel? But i think it is my tranny(cruise o matic)??? Any suggestions???
hey i have a 361 in my edsel im gonna rebuild if i may ask how much did all that cost 4 yours? i only have $2,200 to rebuild mine you think that will be enough. it does run now doesnt knock just needs a real good freshing up.
Ford Motor Company actually for some reason never designated their engines as big or small blocks it is actually considered to be a medium block, but to answer your question the 361 mounts to the larger transmission so yes it is a medium/large block.
cool vid...i like the engine stand set up...i like to build me a test engine machine like that for my garage...lol my neighbors would love me...lol :)
sounds nice man im putting a 390 ford in my 53 ford f100 but the trucks at my grandpas house and it has sat for 30 + years along with the 390 in the barn.
Wow thats awesome haven't even thought of one of these angines in a long time. My friend had one in a 76 f250 what a champ. It was as good at offroading as it was at plowing snow. Always started right up!
i think, i spended about 2000 $ on parts + working time, which I´ve done myself!
the car goes on europe´s biggest vintage car show next week! after that the car will go on a dynotest run! the engine runs with a new 750cfm Summit carb this time!
i will let you know, how much torque and power this enigne produces! ;-)
Hey i plan on doing the same thing. Did you completely rebuild it yourself? or did you take the block to a machine shop and install everything else? I recently found out that I have a 428 block and am restoring my 67 fastback. I wanted to go the bullit route.. but im going to paint it the original vintage burgandy with pearl white stripes :)
hey, nice engine, but whats the name of the song in the begining???? Thanks. oh and do you know of any good websites for ford 390 engine specs, and numbers, we have a a ford fe or ft enine but don't know what it is. thanks
man if you read this you need to get rid of those old "log style" exhaust manifolds and get some decent headers. it will really give that thing some power. sounds a little rich.

thanks very much!
for a ford fe webside, there is a ford fe internet forum ! i don´t know the webside now!
i used only books:
"how to rebuild your Ford Big block"
"ford performance"
"engine blueprinting"
i would say, that these books are important for an engine rebuild!
there are all information, you need!
good luck!

hello!
thanks!
the old manifolds were on the engine only for the test run!
now this engine is running in a 67th ford mustang, which was converted into a 68th mustang fastback in "bullitt" style!
we have selfmade a pair of stainless steel headers for this engine! it runs pretty well and has a very nice sound!!!
the car, which was completely restored, drives very save and fast!!! :) it makes fun!

The cam sounds really mild. Should make for an awsome street engine. Its good to hear old ford iron brought back to life!
I agree, shit can the logs & find some factory 427 hedder manifolds or just a good set of hedders.
