| RE: 390 & 428 heads |

Essentially they're all the same. But there's one exception, the head casting # C8OE-N. That's the 428 Cobra Jet. The valve sizes on this head are 2.09- Intake/ 1.66-Exhaust.
A good all around head to look for is the C6AE-R. A very similar combustion chamber to the C8OE-N. They have the "tall" intake port. They have the provisions cast by the exhaust ports to accept either the CJ or the GT/uni-body exhaust manifolds. Some of the '66 heads are already drilled/tapped for the GT/uni-body manifolds.
My too many cents worth is that the C6AE-R is as good as the Cobra Jet C8OE-N except for concours "correct" 428CJ powered cars. |
