Help With 427 and 428#'s
By Marcus Brewster - 11/01/2002 1:52:27 PM; IP 66.156.161.139
I am looking at two motors for my 68 shelby clone that I need help and advise on. I'm a Ford novice and desperately need verification of what I'm looking at. The 427 is $4000 and is complete except for flywheel. It also includes an extra 2x4 intake and cast iron headers. I posted these numbers on another site and have been told it is a low-rise motor but I really don't know what that means. Can anyone help with specs? HP/Compression/Torque? The engine is supposed to have been rebuilt to stock spec's 200 miles ago.
The 428 is supposed to be a 68 CJ and includes a C6 trans. There is no carb/dist/ehaust manidold. It to is supposed to be fresh with 0 miles. It is $3500. I looked but cant see a date code on the motor. but here are the numbers I could see

428 Block C7ME. 427 block C6AE
Heads C80E 6090 N or H HeadsC3AE6090H
