I looked and apparently my dad got tired of all my stuff laying in his barn since I got married and moved out. all I could find were the parts and pieces of my old 65 mustang , the bigger ones " engine, trans,headers stuff like that". sorry I couldn't help but I'll ask my pop when he gets back in town maybe he knows where all that stuff went.

Question Huh??

Why would a 352 engine be any harder than a 360/390 to get parts for? Engine parts are the same except for crank, rods, pistons and rings.

Main and rod bearings, valves, lifters, gasket sets, waterpumps, fuel pumps, distributor parts, spark plugs, carbs (2V)...etc are the same.

My guess is your parts store may not list the 352...?
