RE: in need of some 428

Looks like a service block. If there's no casting # on the front passenger side, that would be my guess. Doesn't mean that it is for sure, though.

Guess it boils down to cost. How much is he asking, and what's the bore on it now? Is it to expensive that running a sonic check makes it prohibitive? The 428 inside the water jacket is a good indicator, but I would still have it sonic'd to be sure.

That is about the only way to guarantee usability of any 30+year old block.
