nah I was talking about a factory 360.They never made one in the 60's and 70's..Sure you could custom bore and stroke it to 360!! In the 70's a 360 was a Mopar.Chuckman said:i know they made 360's in the 60-70's, had a buddy with a 68? f-250 that had one. iirc it used a 390 block and a 351c crank. tried to get to use the 390 crank but he was too broke to buy too many aftermarket pieces and settled for an eddy intake and 4bbl instead.

uhhh....no there was no 360, there was a 357 which was also part of the FE familyNKau said:They were a factory engine; probably more common than the 390. They were nothing more than a 390 with a shorter stroke. Very common in late 60's/early 70's f250's as someone else mentioned.
And back to the original question, price and availability make the 460 as popular as it is. Cheaper to stroke a 460 to massive c.i. than to work with old tech 428's/427's that are worth more to those doing restorations.
your pullin sh@t out of your hat now!! Dude,there was 'NO" 370!!86bluecobra said:Ford 385 series engine (370, 429, 460)

do some research please. I'm not a complete Dumba$$. Ford did make a 370 just because you never heard of it doesn't mean it doesn't exist.willys1 said:your pullin sh@t out of your hat now!! Dude,there was 'NO" 370!!
