i finally got the engine and trans back into my 70 f250, the 390 is so much better then when it was a 360. i cant hardly believe it. now i need a 4 barrel, and some headers. fellro i will be ready to bring the hoist back down to you next weekend if you are going to be there, let me know. call me if you still got the number. i got about 45 miles on it so far. next saturday i will change the oil and filter and hopefully soon start the body work.

 

I'll be here, likely lost the number already. Do you have an intake? got a few laying around here.

 

glad to hear you got it together, I know what you mean when I made that change from a 360 to a 390 (many, many moons ago) in my 69 F100, I thought I had a different truck.

 

nope, i neither have an intake or the carb. i would like to find one for sure. i gave your numbers to my wife and of course she cant find them lol.

 

I have the intake and carb from my old 75, but they are 10 hours away in South Dakota, but I know there is an intake or so here. Used the square bore Holley.

 

it is really not that important right now, i just got it started. dont really want to take it apart again. lol

 

The one here is just laying around, the one out there is just waiting...

 

oh now you are tempting me big time. lol. i will defintly look at it when i am bringing that hoist back to you next weekend.

 

don't get too scared, I'll cut you a good deal.
