Engine identification

Hi guys and gals,

Im new to the forum and am wondering what engine is in this truck. I imagine one of you could identify this motor. The truck is about 200 miles from me so I only have some motor pics. It is currently in a 74 f100 4x4.
Is this a 360?

Welcome to FTE.

Looks like an FE so possibly a 360.

Thank you for responding so quickly. I was thinking it may be a 360 too but not 100% sure. I know the people on this forum have much more experience than I.

Thanks again for your help

Definately a FE series, which could be a 332/352/360/361/390/391/406/410/427/or 428 , but it looks so original there, my bet is that it is a 360.

Thank you. Yes looking up the Vin number it shows the truck came with a 360 originally. Hopefully its the original engine.

Pull a spark plug and pull the oil dipstick and wipe it clean.

Put the dipstick down in cylinder and bar engine over until it stops going down. Mark with sharpie.
Repeat and bar until dipstick stops coming up. Mark again and measure between marks.

360=3.5" stroke
390=3.79" stroke.

Maybe youll get lucky and find you have a 390.

Yes it could be another one of the FE but chances are slim.
