Big Block ID for C6ME-A
By olddustyrelics - 03/27/2004 11:33:31 PM; IP 68.252.40.168
This engine has a 6L1 date code (12-01-66), It is in the car and running rough but it is in a 67 Fastback Mustang and obviously not original. I'm trying to figure out the correct firing order but it has an aftermarket intake. Can anyone help me ID this engine (what the hell is it? a 390 428??) It says 428 on the aircleaner but who knows. Any definitive help would be great so I can try and get this thing running, I'm pulling my hair out!!
This thread, so far...
