Need help identifying an engine
I have a '64 F-700 and need help IDing the engine. It is an FE big block V8. I am assuming it would be a 361 or 391 but the guy I bought it from thought it was a 360. How can I tell between the 360 and the HD engines? Thanks.

The FT engines are significantly heavier and beefier. The best indicator, as I've been told, without disassembling the engine, is the snout of the crankshaft. If you can compare it visually to a standard FE engine, you'll notice the FT (361/391) snout is much thicker.
Check the FE forum out, they can probably help you out with better ideas. I am familiar enough with standard FEs that I can tell the difference, but I don't know the measurements.
Good luck.

WITHOUT KNOWING IF THIS TRUCK HAS THE ORIGINAL SIZED ENGINE IN IT OR NOT IT'S REALLY HARD TO SAY, BUT IF YOU CAN CHECK THE CERTIFICATION PLATE ON THE TRUCK THEN HERE ARE THE ENGINE CODES:
CODE A = 330MEDIUM DUTY/2V FORD CARB. 160HP@3800RPM
CODE M = 330HEAVY DUTY/2V HOLLEY CARB. 160HP@3800RPM
CODE K = 361 / 2V HOLLEY 176HP@3800
CODE 9 = 391 / 4V HOLLEY 199HP@3800
330 MEDIUM DUTY USED A NODULAR CRANK WITH A CASTING# OF 2T, WITH AN OVERALL LENGTH OF 27 AND 15/16" WITH A SNOUT DIAMETER OF 1 AND 3/8"
330 HEAVY DUTY/361 USED A FORGED STEEL CRANK WITH AN OVERALL LENGTH OF 28 AND 3/16" WITH A SNOUT DIAMETER OF 1 AND 3/4"
391 CRANKS HAD A CASTING # OF C6TE6303E AND WERE FORGED STEEL WITH AN OVERALL LENGTH OF 28 AND 3/16"
330MD HEAD CASTING# = C4TE6090C OR C4TE6090E
330HD/361/391 HEAD CASTING # = C4TE6090A OR C4TE6090D
330MD CARB.# = C4TF-AK,C4TF-BN,C6TF-A,OR C7TF-J ALL WERE FORD 2V CARBS
330HD CARB# = C4TF-A,C4TF-BY, C5TF-AS, C6TF-BE, OR C7TF-A ALL WERE
HOLLEY 2V CARBS.
361 CARB# = C4TF-C, C4TF-BZ, C5TF-AU, C7TF-B, C7TF-AD ALL WERE HOLLEY 2V CARBS
391 CARB# = C4TF-F, C4TF-CA, C5TF-AT, C7TF-U, C7TF-AE ALL WERE HOLLEY 4V CARBS
I HOPE THAT THIS HELPS YOU SOME IF THERE'S ANYTHING ELSE YOU MIGHT NEED INFO ON JUST LET ME KNOW
