385 Width-27"

There is several versions of a drawing of engine dimensions on the net. I think one of them shows a FE compared to a 385 series.

I can tell you I have seen 385 series engines sitting beside FE engines in Cobras and the few inches difference makes a huge difference in the car.

Bore spacing on FE is 4.63" 385 series is 4.90"
Deck height on FE is 10.17" 385 series is 10.30"
385 series heads are much larger
