Question 360 CID ford?????????

I dont know anything about these motors. Im not even sure if they are a BB or SB, and if parts work from other engines, if so what. I aquired one of these engines for nothing and im curious. Can you build a decent running 360???? fill me in give me any info you can. thanks a million.

The block is the same as a 390, just a smaller stroke crank (same as the 352). You can add a 390 crank/rods and pistons and walla... Check the FE forum, lot's of 360 upgrade info there.

These are great motors IMO. With headers, a 4-barrel intake and carb you can really wake them up. With a cam you can turn them into a beast. They have a deep skirt block, where the block extends below the centerline of the crank. This makes them a VERY strong and stout motor. Short of wearing down the bearings, it's almost impossible to break them.

Technically they are a big block. Check the FE forum, we'd be glad to have another FE enthusiast.
