Ford FE Engine Block Casting Numbers

  

NOTE  -  The information presented here was gathered from a variety of sources. If you see (or don't see) anything that needs corrected or added, please e-mail me.

Entries below are what it COULD be, not necessarily what it is!

FYI  -  A majority of FE blocks have either a '352' or a backwards '501' cast into the front of the block. With the exception of a few hi-performance 428 blocks, most all other FE blocks are identical externally. That is:

CID STROKE
352 3.50"
360
390 3.78"
406
427
410 3.98"
428

 

You generally CANNOT tell what CID an FE engine
is simply by looking at casting numbers!

The only way of differentiating between them, since there are no external markings to tell you what you've got, is to measure the stroke. Simply rotate the crankshaft around until the #1 cylinder is at TDC (top dead center) as indicated at the timing mark. Remove the spark plug and insert a wooden dowel into the cylinder until you hit the top of the piston and make a mark on the dowel. (Use the valve cover lip as a constant reference source.) Then remove the spark plug from the #4 cylinder (when #1 is TDC, #4 is BDC) and make another mark on the dowel. Then measure the difference.
