So all us do it yourselfers should just run over and throw the block in the hot tank... LOL ... at least we aren't expected to bore/hone and deck it with our sunnen equipment this time around...

Also 410 pistons are exactly right for a 390 truck motor ...

Still good stuff ---

Spoiler - 410 ish HP with a Comp hyd roller...

Torque not to bad, kinda disappointed in the HP #s though. Ford was doing that back in the day with flat tapets , iron heads and heavy ass pistons.
