heres a new one

Post by Larry Jones »

Iam trying to order a long block from a company thats been remanufactured. The cost 895.00 dollars plus a 300.00 core excange. My engine is from a 1962 t-bird casting number c2ae. He telling me I have the high performance engine in it or a police interceptor. There engine is a fe390 with 250 horsepower in it. That the cam would be different in theres. There technical man is going to call me back. I would imagine Theres should have the three hundred horses to it to. If it didnt what what be done different to the engine than the one I own now. Larry Curious to find this out from someone out there.

Larry,

if the engine builder does not know what specifications the FE engines had, would you trust him?

It should be 300hp as a base, if it's 250hp sounds like a truck engine.

Walk away and try one of the FE engine vendors that we have posted previously for you! ::?
