no
302, 351, 360, 390, and 427
Good rule of thumb around 6 to 8 btdc
ford did not offer a 351 in 72. its either a 360 or 390.
I had a 76 F100 with a 390 with headers and yes you do. worst thing I ever did was to put headers on that truck because the heat would cook the starters and leave me stranded in places i shouldn't be. hard to keep exhaust gaskets from leaking.
Do I need to pull the oil pan to take off the timing cover on FE 390.
the firing order is (1-5-4-2-6-3-7-8) i seeen the timing on 69 ford motor now i need to see the block and distubritor pics would help a lot more to replace all this i have a ford motor that well not run i no nothing about what might be wrong with it exept timing it has points the motor is in a 1978 f 150 looks like a 390 may not original motor for truck thank you
the 352 ci is a fe motor along with the 390 but far as the same no the 390 is a bigger motor more power but will interchange with the 352 list of fe motors ,330 332 352 360 390 406 427 428
yes but will need to change motor stands and move them back an inch or so and you will have to cut your drive shaft, i know this because i have a 351 c in my 1968 ranger short bed

The 390 Ford motor is an FE block and was made as a Big Block only. The small block or Windsor motor could be bored and stroked to have 390+ cubic inches. To build a stroker motor you have to do extensive machine work and parts matching. That process usually involves large amounts of money.
