what motor is this in my '66 - she's a 2bbl

[my66cruiser]

My '66 T-Bird has a 2bbl motor from a '67 Ford Truck (based on the intake manifold casting number). The carb is an Autolite 2bbl. Where, on the block, can I find the engine casting number as I am trying to ascertain what motor I have? Is this a 352/360/390/428? the block has 352 on the front it but they all have that, right? I am looking for an easy way to learn this w/o having to measure stroke. Any ideas would be helpful. Thanks.

Me too!

I also have a two barrel setup although i think mine came from a '69. There is a number on a pad by the oil filter adapter. I have not had a chance to clean it up enough to read it but maybe thats the one?

Hey, another 2bbl. What's happening? Is yours a 390? I guess we are the minority here having 2bbl cars, but we both know how well they move with the 2bbl. I will look for that number by the oil filter. I am curious what the HP and Torque specs are on this motor, but to do that I need to know the motor size. Thanks again.

Hi ojcolina,

Thanks for the picture. Very helpful. I'll have to get in there with a rag and a flashlight to see my block casting #. That is an excellent looking block in the picture.
