I got a 62 bird. The engine seemed okay cold. Drove it around. Now when it is hot it knocks. Wonderful. I almost cryed. It's the rod bearings. Job is 500 bucks. Im unable to spend that money right now. I have a friend who has a 352 that he had rebuilt about 3 years ago to put in a 50 ford coupe. It was too big so he got a 302 and the 352 has been in the garage. He said he would give it to me. Woo hoo.
Now it is an fe motor so the motor mounts should be the same. Rigt?!?! It is an fe so the transmission hook up should be the same. Right?!?!
Now, he has it hooked up to a c6 right now. I have a 62 cruse o matic.... Is there any difference here I should be aware of? Transmission used the same parts, bolts, etc?
Is there any reason I should not be able to do a simple swap of the 390 and 352?
Thanks for your input.
