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.

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.
