Visit the FE engine forum and do a search, and you'll find dozens (if not hundreds) of threads on this topic.

The short answer is that everything interchanges. The only difference between the 360 and the 390 is the rotating assembly (crankshaft, connecting rods and pistons). The block, heads, accessories, etc., are all the same.

Oh, and you can put a 4v carb on a 2v intake by using an adapter, but there's no point to it. Depending on what you want the motor to do, there's probably little reason, if any, to switch from a 2v to a 4v carb. It's just added complexity and cost for no real benefit in a truck.

I'm not aware of air shocks being either standard equipment or an option from the factory. They certainly weren't standard. If they were an option, it's a rare option. More likely is that they are aftermarket items.
