Re: rebuilding my 389
Sphinxx is right. The bearings, gaskets (if your 389 is a '65 or '66), timing set, oil pump, cam and lifters (unless your 389 is a '61 or older) are the "same" as 400. 326, 350, 421,428 and 455, too! The cam grinds are all different, but they all fit across the family.
The pistons and rings are different. Care must be taken to assure the piston doesn't run into the counterweight on the crank. Different years of 389 have different requirements.
