Question block casting # question
I have the opportunity to pick up a NOS bare block pretty cheap.
It has a D4TE casting number I was told that it is a 390 but all I have been able to find it listed as is a 391 HD truck motor...is this true and even so would it be a good base to build from? and is it considered an FE block? Sorry for my ignorance but the deeper I dig into fords block numbering the more confusing the info seems to get.

Thanks for any info!
Dan
