You will probably have to machine the tops off the 390 pistons.
I made a post titled "410 pistons again" a while back that has photos of the pistons and descriptions.
A 428 flywheel/flex plate has a weight on it, to use a 390 one you will have to balance the crank to make up for the lack of the weight. IIRC
