Alright sounds good. Also, Welcome to FTE, as you can tell there are many knowledgeable people on here that can help you with just about anything you can think of. Well as long as it has to do with Fords

Its a Fe engine 360 or 390 measuring the stroke will tell you the difference .as I recall yrs ago the pistons are stamped inside by the wrist pin 390 or 360 only problem is you can;t see this or read it without pulling the piston. YOu could get lucky you wish a 406 410 428 just kidding
