360 to 390 Mounts
I'm looking to put a 360 into a 56 f100, my question is are the engine mounts the same on a ford 360 from a 67 f100 to a ford 390 ?
And has anyone turned the 360 into a 390 ?

Actually, a similar conversation just took place here:

It gave a lot of information about the FE blocks. Some of it is kind of discouraging about the 360, but they're not mean about it. Just informative.
Have fun!

352 used 1965/67, 360/390 used 1968/76. When you say mounts, what are you referring to, the rubber insulators?
If so, C7TZ-6038-H Right & C7TZ-6038-J Left: 1965/66 F100/250 352 2WD - 1966 F100 352 4WD - 1967 F100/350 352 - 1968/76 F100/350 360/390.

1968/76 F100/350 360/390's share the same block, the bore is the same (4.05"), the stroke is different. 360: 3.50" vs 390: 3.78."
To convert a 360 to a 390, all you need is the 390's crank, rods, pistons and rings...and that's it! Everything else is the same.
If you click on the link to the other thread provided in post 4, read my post 11.

The simple answer for the mount is yes, same block. If you are thinking of going more cubes, why stop at 390? You can go to 428 with that block with a appropriate stock crank and you can go real big with a stroker crank for pretty cheap these days.

I have a set of headers for 390 FE which fit my 1951 which has a frame 2" narrower than yours. They are rust free and only have a few thousand miles. One tube was squeezed a bit to clear the steering. That could be helpful or easily fixed. Shipped, I'm asking $120.
Email me at dougwierenga@***.net and I will send you pictures of the headers.
Good luck with your project!
