Default FE SERIES

Can you fellas straighten me out on something... What engines were considered "FE" series, besides the 428. 427? I know the 360 and 352, but that was primarily Fords light truck line...correct?

I saw a 390 powering an industrial tree chipper, and I'm pretty sure there was one on a ski lift at Camelback as a backup power supply.

The FE was originally developed for the Edsel. It eventually was developed into all sorts of forms, including 332, 352, 360, 361, 390, 406, 410, 427, and 428. The 427 had many forms,including the side-oiler, the briefly seen SOHC NASCAR 427, and the DOHC LeMans engine.

332,352,360,390,410,427,428 cubic inch motors were used in cars and light trucks..There is a whole other lineup that is very similar that are called FT (330,361,391) motors that were used in heavy duty bigger style trucks..

Couple of other thoughts:
If you are running higher horsepower, you may want to stiffen the shock towers with shock tower wraps (welding required).
Also, the 67 did not have a torque box on the passenger side.
Sub frame connectors can also help.

Default 390

Saw a number of "industrial " applications for the 300 6, but a big-block V8 would be impressive

The 427s were also used for irrigation pumps and were commonly used in boats as well..One motor turned backwards and the other forwards to even out the torque on the boat..If you find a "backwards" motor you have to change out the cam and distributor to put it in a car..
