330 H.d. help

I have a 78 f600 dump truck with a 330hd engine. I can't find any part number for engine rebuild kits.
Or for valves and lifters
Is this a rare engine?
any help would be great

Lifters should be basic FE/FT stuff, valves might be a little harder to find, if they are sodium filled exhaust valves.

The rest of the parts should be available somewhere, I suspect you might have to push NAPA a little harder. If you're just using your local NAPA, call another one farther away and see if they have any more of a clue.

Their not rare at all other than their age, 330's where used in ford medium duty F-600's from around 1964 to 1978 or 79. Bearings, gaskets and lifters are the same as any fe engine, cam is the same as one for 360's used in 68-76 pickups, pistons must be for the smaller 330 bore, car and pickup valves wont work, but 330, 361 and 391 hd's used the same valves. There was a 330MD that used different exhaust valves than what HD engines used.

And I thought all Napa stores are the same? We get all we want from our Napa
store because the guys have grey hair and use books. Don't know If I spelled this
right > Cleggs Engine < (my son handles parts dept not me) anyways a full rebuild
on a flathead is around $850 all US Parts. I'll ask the boy where they are out west
some where. sam

The 330MD was more of an FE style motor.
