That's a FT intake. The FT heads and intake have the heat crossover in the center like your intake. The C8 heads and std FE heads the crossover port is farther back. You might be able to block them. I've never used or ran that combo but I have just blocked the std FE crossover. look at the heads and intake and see if it's possible. I don't see much FT stuff anymore so can't say for sure if you can or not. But I don't think so. I'd also be concerned with the port match and take a good look there also. If you can find a way to block both and the port match is cool you should be ok tho.

Edelbrock intakes were designed to bolt on to stock heads. So everything will bolt on that is supposed to. There are a few exceptions to that which if you order the intake will be specified through whoever you order the part from. If you order it through summit or jegs you can call and confirm the part fits before you spend a dime.

Remember the FT blocks have a larger pilot bushing (FT.516 vs FE .453) the bottom of the distributor sits in. So if you decide to order a std FE or msd etc...dizzy you'll need to swap that bushing. Unless it has been changed already..... If not I beleive Ford still carries them. Ford part number is C4TZ-12367-A and should be available. If not DSC motorsports sells them. $22-33 depending on the vendor. Then you want to check the oil pump shaft size in relation to the oil pump. Be sure they are both compatable. Just something to be aware of. I know the 391 blocks used the larger dizzy shaft bushing but not 100% postive in the 330. But think it's the same regardless.

Refresh me a bit on the build. Was 330FT and now a 360 correct? What pistons were used? Flat top, dish?
The old FT heads had large 78-81cc chambers. The C8 heads chambers are 68-72 cc's
Google search "engine math" and you should get some sites with calculators to plug your numbers into. That will give you a general idea. Try here if you can't find any.
