I am 90% sure that any dip stick from any 352 will fit your 390. Blocks are identical with exceptions being oil passages. Hope this helps.

Regards;
Larry

Thanks Larry. This turned out to be so strange. We found several 390 engines, but the dip stick was to short. We finally found one from an old Ford guy who said it had to come from a certain year 390. So this problem is solved. We have all of the lights working, the engine runs great. Now we tackle the brakes and the exhaust. Thanks for your help.
