Default Ford 360?

There is a 67 F-250 Trailer Special at work and when I asked the boss what engine he said it had a 360. did ford ever have a 360? I don't think that it's a bored and stroked engine because it's just a slightly beat up work truck.

Yes they had a 360. its the predacessor to the 390. Ford had ALOT of odd sized motors. like the 312 in the T-bird.

What year T-Bird NGM?? I know that the early 90's T-Bird had a Turbo v6 but I'm not sure the size of the engine.

The 360 was not the predecessor it was the sister engine to the 390.

positive ther was not a turbo bird in the 90's?

I had a friend who was trying to blow up the turbo on one so he would have a reason to rebuild it, and I could have sworn it was a 90's car...

I am positive. The last year for the turbo t-bird was 1988.

360 was an FE series engine that included the 352, 360, 361, 390, 406, 427, 428 engines. many parts are interchangeable and the 360 was mainly found in the light duty trucks (f100), 361 and a 391 were used in heavier trucks. 360 was a good pulling engine, low on horsepower i think in my opinion. I had one in a 1976 that i rebuilt using holman moody cam, blackjack headers, shaved truck heads, and an aluminum intake from a mid/late sixties 428 police interceptor engine. really woke the truck up and it was backed up by a a c-6 auto built to south carolina police interceptor specs....really good tranny. my dad had the use of a 1975 4x4 with a 4 speed and a 360 that would pull h-ll of the hinges i think..more of a torque monster than a speed demon unless built with the right parts cause the potential was there...note, IT was an FE series engine
