does anyone know if this kit will fit my 5.9L amc 360. It says that it fits a ford 5.9L 360 but im not sure if its the same engine that they are talking about. here's the web address Federal Mogul MKP-601N000 - Federal Mogul Premium Engine Rebuild Kits - Application - SummitRacing.com

X2. If your planning on replacing the crank bearings and thrust washers, there's a metal tag on the valve cover that indicates the bearing size(Thickness), you might need this if your just replacing it yourself. I would suggest that you get a reputable machine shop to do the crank work for you for a proper fitment so that they can bore out the bearings to spec. if it's too thick. I rebuilt my AMC360 from the camshaft and up then i had the machine shop do a blueprint of the crank , machined, and had the cylinder heads checked and ported.
