.090 over bore?

Has anyone seen a .090 over 390? The pistons have 90 or 06 on them. Thanks. Shawn. To the 390's

You found one? That's odd. I've never heard of .090" oversize pistons. OBTW, 4.050" + .090" = 4.140". That's beyond 428 dimensions...

Maybe it means .06" ??? That's a .060 overbore.

Or, it's just nonsense and doesn't mean anything besides a part # ...

What are these pistons out of? Got a crank # ???

Measure the piston diameter. That will tell you what size it is.

Crank number is on the edge of the 7th counterweight. Could be a 2U, 3U or a full casting number. I bet those slugs are .060. if they are 4.14 428 slugs they'd be marked .010 possibly???

It should be on the side of one of them unless it was ground off for some reason. Look on the inside edge also. It should be there somewhere. My 428 crank has IUB stamped on the inside edge of #7. My old 2U 390 was stamped there also. I think your slugs are .060 giving you a 4.11 bore.

Sounds like you've got a 360.

Maybe this 90 or 06 number is meaningless in terms of piston oversize. 1/16" = .0625", so that's close enough to 4.050" on a tape measurement.

That is a good block BTW.

Ohhhh, I hate it when that happens... Wonder how many 352's/360's have been passed off as 390's?

Or how many 390's wound up as scrap because it said "352" on the block.
