390 with 1U crank--> 410 , eh...pistons??
Can anybody tell me, if there's a piston(height) difference between a 410 and a std. 390?
I'm at the start (just disassembled) of rebuilding my (to be 060 overbored) 390.
Now I read about using a 428 crank, in order to get to the 410 (like Ford did themselves with the mercury blocks), but there isn't anything about the pistons. I have a 1U casting lying here right now...
Did they (or do they still) use the same pistons in both 390 and 410? Do I get problems with compressionheight-differences or not?
thanx,
TomGoing sideways through a bend isn't considered normal or even sane, so that's the way I like it!
