Mines 4WD with a NP203 (Full Time) and was converted so it can be 2WD and mine has well its not the original FE but I think its a 390, may be a 360. Guy told me it was a 390 and I think it is, he probably swapped it in. No mine dont run lol thats why its getting a powerstroke and mines auto. But my 78 over at my uncles is a 4 spd and will get the FE from the 250 and its going to be a drag truck.

The Last Year for FEs in Trucks was '76...
Many 360s become 390s when the person want's to sell the vehicle.
My truck was Built in October of '75, With a 4-Speed and a 390-V8.
Someone swapped in a 390 V8 from something with an Automatic, For a truck that weighs 5,000-Pounds, This Heavy Sexy F-350 can make short of the big tires on the back...

Well reason I say it is probably a 390 is cause its a 1967 Motor. And a guy told me it was a 390, but I plan on tearing it down and and seeing, and if it is a 360 it will become a 390 =) Just need 390 crank and rods. But its going to become a drag engine coupled to a top loader 4 spd from a mustang and put in a 1978 Ford F100.
