Hey hey hey, guys.
I'm sorry, my sarcastic sense of humor doesn't always come across clear on the forum. I thought you would think I was joking.
I wish I had a 428 block sitting around for each of y'all but right now the only engine I have is under the hood of my 68 and it is 81 cubes shy of 428.
Sorry to have gotten your hopes up.

Fast66, the tooth fairy rumour is true. Do you have baby teeth left? I do. 3 to be exact. This time I am not joking. My mouth is F@cked up but you wouldnt know it unless you were my dentist, lucky for me.

390BigBlock1... Yeah, I dont really have my own backyard. But there is a backyard I share with 4 of my neighbors. And its right on a lagoon with an outdoor fireplace and party patio so its pretty sick. That sucks the 351 is broken.

68Mustang302... I dont really know much about the 428 CJ engine so I am not in a position to give you an accurate answer. But here is a link to some good info if you would like to research it further. http://auto.howstuffworks.com/30008-...-explained.htm
