428 build up
By Jim Paschen - 04/17/2002 9:55:28 AM; IP 64.118.135.132
Can anyone give me a heads up on what it will take to build a good street/ strip 428. I was going to build a stroked 390 for my 66 Fairlane but got a good deal on a 428 block so I decided to go that way. Let me tell you the components that I have and you can tell me what I need and if this combo will work. I currently have a standard 428 Block, 410 (IU) crank, 428 rods, 390 GT heads ported & polished, PI aluminum intake, NOS parts - adjustable rockers, C8AX-6250-C cam (286I/296E duration, .510 lift), anti-pump up lifters, ford pushrods. Hooker super comp headers, 3.91 Detroit Locker. I only have 28 tooth axles and the normal (small input) toploader. Will I be breaking these parts with this combo. Will this combo give me a good running 428? I also have seen tnese blueprinted oil pumps from Precision Pump in California. Does anyone know if their pumps are worth the money. What size oil pan should I use. The car will be a street cruiser with occasional strip duty. Let me know if there are any changes I should make or additions. Also, are roller rockers with billet shafts necessary for an engine of this caliber.
This thread, so far...
