Would that have been a MEL 410? If I recall Ford also sold a F.E. 410 one year? And i't's gone?

The 410 Edsel engine was a one year only offering being 1958 and is a M-E-L based engine. The 410 Edsel MEL engine uses a 430 crankshaft but with a slightly smaller bore size. The FE 410 was a two year offering in the Mercury lineup; 1966 & 1967. The FE 410 engine was essentially a 390 block using a 428 crankshaft.
