I would be willing to take $3000 for this. I need the room in my shop. A lot of good parts here for the money. Jim
This is my old bracket 390 that ran high 12's w/full exhaust and low 12's w/open headers in my 1966 Comet. I pulled the motor in 2006 when I switched to my 416FE. This is a non ribbed block but has been zero decked, align honed mains, ARP main studs Motorsports windage tray and 7qt Milodon oil pan. The rods are factory resized with ARP bolts. It has .030 forged 2291 pistons and the rotating assembly has been balanced. It has a new 9 position timing set, Melling hv oil pump with Motorsports HD pump drive shaft. I installed new Sealed power main bearings and King rod bearings along with Sealed power moly rings on the pistons. The machine work was done by Jax Specialty engines in Hamel MN. The cam is an Erson Hi flow solid flat tappet with 242/246 duration @.050 with .595 lift. I have the matching lifters boxed in order as I took them out so there should be no issue with cam failures. The top end is C8AE-H heads ported by me. They have 2.09/1.65 stainless valves, Isky springs (130lb seat/340lb open) Comp spring cups, retainers and keepers. Valve seals are pc style. Jax cut the heads to have 58cc chambers so this combo works out to have 12 to 1 compression. The valve train consists of Comp rockers, Harland Sharp hd shafts, pump builders stands, ARP shaft studs and Smith Brothers push rods. I have new Felpro 1020 head gaskets, ARP head bolts and SCE intake gaskets to bolt the top end on. The intake is an Edelbrock Performer RPM that is port matched to the heads and the plenum is cut down 1 inch. I would like $3500.00 for everything. This top end would be perfect to bolt onto a 70's low compression 390 motor to wake it up. I am in the Twin Cities area and would be willing to meet in the 5 state area. Thanks, Jim
