428: Could it be original? Please help.

By Chad - 10/16/2004 2:08:44 PM; IP 67.234.133.166

I have had this engine for a long time and still dont know if this was the original build:
Block: C5AE 4.13 bore ( .225 water jacket between bore casting.
Crank: 1U(428)
Cam : upsidedown A U(390GT 428)
Rods: C-6AE-C
Heads:C-6AE-R with 14 bolt exhaust pattern
Intake: "S" C6AE 9426 G

Is this a 66 390 GT bored to 428 (close bore castings, .225,) would appear to say no.
Is this an early 66 428 std which got the "390GT" heads and intake at the factory.Could this have happened when they were just bringing the 428 into production in 66?

I was hoping you FE identification wizards could help.Thanks alot.
