RE: 429 Thunderjet
It's my understanding that are just the standard engine for those big cars for Ford and Mercury. People would rather if they had a choice go with a 429 Cobra Jet, 429 Super Cobra Jet, or a 429 Boss before they got a Thunderjet. Here are the specs
429 (Thunderjet)
two-bolt main bearing cap
Bore and Stroke 4.36x3.59
cast-iron crankshaft
forged-steel connecting rods with 3/8 inch rod bolts
cast-aluminum pistons
hydraulic lifter camshaft
2.08 inch/1.66 inch intake/exhaust valves
non-adjustable rocker arms
cast-iron intake manifold
4 barrel or 2 barrel carburator
