Sorry for the thread drift   but wasn't the story that someone had managed to purchase a bunch of late production side oiler rejects that were supposed to be destroyed and they had surfaced several years ago up for sale?          Jim Kramer

have you looked on ebay uk? there's often fe's for sale, there's a 390 in bits now for under £1000. oh, and a 360 block is the same as a 390 block just with a 352 crank'.
neil.

Thanks a lot for that tip. I did not. Will do now :-)
That engine you mentioned is already 40 thousands over. I need a standard bore 360/390, that I can have bored to match my brandnew pistons/rings.
