Just got my "wrecked" Motor back from the engine shop today
the block was cracked on a #3 main bearing saddle so I chucked it.
kept all my other parts and looked at the part #'s on them.
here they are:
-crane blazer cam Part #: 292-2h
-Heads: d2teaa
-pistons: 08te611om (FoMoCo) was told they were .03 over but dont think so now that i seen the oval stamp with FoMoCo in it.
-Rods: C7AE-B
-Crank: 2ua , 26862 then has res, t010, m010 stamped in it, cant find any other markings
just wondering if all these parts are for 1974 390. mostly wondering about crank . I think the stamed stuff is for undersised bearings.
I bought the heads from a local mud racer but dont know what there off of
Any help will be apreciated.
Buying(more like stealing for the price) another 390 fe with KB pistons and aluminum rods. wieland intake, crane cam, c-6 with manual valve body, and lots of other goodies. Price? ..................$400
To me: PRICELESS

 

Those heads are post 1972, crank has been turned. In my opinion the year of the motor is not real important. Most are "frankenstein builds".

 

I know FoMoCo is a thing of the 60's, kinda like the DIF stampings. I would think it's fair to assume any piston w/ factory stampings is a std. bore piston.

Those heads are probably of the most common heads you'll find, but at least they have good combustion chambers(compared to pre '66 heads) and the only FE heads to come factory with hardened valve seats.

not sure what else....2UA means a 390 crank....

 

2UA, 2U or 3U
