    2 390's for $250 that need rebuilt. The one with mt valve covers blows oil through the dipstick and the other has no power. The guy said someone told that the piston rings might be stuck in the piston. The one with the mt valve covers also has electronic ignition. It was pulled from a mid 70's high boy.

    Probably keep one as a backup and find another 67-72 F100 for the other. I also found rebuildable 360 for $150 but dont when I'm going after it yet.
