I guess a 390. Just a guess.

truck engines are
361 fe
391 fe

i think most are forged steel cranks

i can't remember the numbers for the 385 series
maybe 370

From Wiki:

360 Truck
The 360, of 360.7 cu in (5.9 L) actual displacement, was introduced in 1968 and phased out at the end of the 1976 year run; it was used in the Ford F Series trucks and pickups. It is a destroked 410 with a bore of 4.05 inches (102.87 mm) and the 352's 3.5 inches (88.90 mm) stroke. 360s were also constructed with heavy duty internal components for truck use. Use of a standard 352/390 cam for use in passenger cars along with carburetor and distributor adjustment allowed the 360 to give performance similar to that of the 352 and 390 car engines. Rated at 215 bhp (160.3 kW) at 4200 rpm and 375 lb·ft (508 N·m) of torque @3600 rpm (2-barrel carb, 1968).

2V, 8.4:1
215 bhp (160.3 kW) at 4400 rpm and 327 lb·ft (443 N·m) at 2400 rpm
1968–1971 Trucks[16]

by the way if your considering using a truck engine on a car, the heads, intake manifod, and exhaust manifolds on truck engines are different than the ones on cars.

so much for wiki
352 ran much better that 360
352 9.5 : 1 comp maybe 10:1 comp
360 was 8.4:1 comp

352 was 4 in bore and i think had 250 hp

This is a Ford "industrial" engine and has no relationship with an FE motor and does not share parts. A good friend has two of these in two F-700 and above trucks. Low compression, not much horse power, but HUGE torque and grunt at VERY low RPM's. Red line in the 3,000 RPM area.

Not to be confused with an FE or 429/460. Special industrial engines for trucks.

guys use the cranks out of the 391's all the time.
they turn the snout down to 390 specs and run them.
