Thread: FE 390 -416 stroker kit?

Tweet

I picked up a 416 stroker kit for a 390 FE last month from a friend of a friend. The guy said he bought it but never installed it. Well im rebuilding my 390 FE so i picked it up. Its got cast pistons and rods and a scat crank. The rods #'s are stock 428 rods. And the pistons i have no idea other than the size are .060 marked on top. Do you guys think those will last me? Its goin in a 75 F100 4x4 prolly take it to the track once or twice a month just to put it in its pace. Rest gonna be city driving mostly. Ive looked hard and the only place i found that had forged pistons for the 390 .060 over was kieth black and they were to tall. So what do you guys think?

cast will be fine .. just dont plan on revving over 6 grand
