390fe side oiler

MM330,
Can you please clarify what you mean by the phrase above? Is this a side-oiler block that has been sleeved down, or is it a 390 block that has had oil system modifications?
Thanks,
Lee

I could see how you could sleeve down a side oiler block to a 4.05 390 bore, but why?

I understand doing the oil mods needed to all FE's, but thats to a center-oiler block. I don't understand how you can modify a FE center-oiler block to be a side oiler, and they didn't make any 390 side-oilers that I'm aware of.

I think the reason he asked the question is because that what you said you had for sale... a 390 side oiler. Read your own add.
