If you can be happy with a stock 8.5:1 390 putting out about 320 HP, you cannot go wrong with the used T-Bird engine. A good rebuild isn't cheap, but won't cost anything near what most of these high performance FE's you see here often cost. You can use many of the stock parts from the T-Bird except the flex plate, which must be changed out for a flywheel. Good luck.
