390 was the better big block ford engine, it is the same block as the 352 and 360 but the 360 is a worthless gutless pile of garbage, where as the 352 is pretty tough, but the 390 is the better of the three. should be able to hone the rust out of the cylindr as long as it is not pitted too bad. If it is, just bore it out. If you go to www.northernautoparts.com you can buy complete rebuild kits for very little and they come with every thing including the cam, lifters, pistons, rings, bearings, gaskets,all of the freeze plugs, vavle guides, and so forth, and best of all you can get it all oversized (pistons & rings) for no extra charge. I have bought several kits from these guys and they are extremely good, I have never had a problem with any of them. My local parts store has no idea as to how they can sell there kits for so cheap, he said he cant even get them for that price.
