That casting number isn't an engine block casting number, but rather the intake manifold. The block casting number is on the block itself. 9425 is the part number for an intake manifold, block part number is 6015

Yep that is one of the "T" intakes. Same as the car "S" intakes except a truck part with the "TE" in the number. Pretty much std issue FE intake. Both T and S were found on cars and trucks. Even tho the T intake has a truck specific number and application they can still be found on cars. And vica versa. Ford was not picky what they used to keep things rollin. There are 2v and 4v versions of each. Just the carb flange is different.

And FWIW the 360 and 390 used the exact same block. Block casting numbers are generic for the most part and not much good to ID. You can either measure the stroke with a dowel/wire or remove the oilpan and look at the crank numbers. 3.50" is a 352 or 360 stroke. 3.74 stroke a 390,406 or 427. 3.98 stroke a 410 or 428. Cyl bores you'd really need to measure to be exactly sure. 4.00 is a 352. 4.05 a 360/390/410. 4.13 a 406 or 428. 427 is 4.23. These are all std bore so add for overbore. The same casting number can be found on different bore blocks so they are PMU. Heads, intakes, cranks, rods and almost everything else tho can be ID'd buy the casting numbers. Blocks are the only oddball. If you were certain the engine is original to the vehicle you can see what the engine code was/is. It's also possible it could have always been swapped out with another engine making the engine code useless. But you'd know what engine the vehicle came with from the factory if it mattered.

Amend this to include the 410 having also the same block/bore as the 360/390 and the stroke is 3.78
