428 Engine I.D.
By Ron - 08/12/2000 5:08:11 AM; IP 209.156.148.27
I am considering purchasing a 69 Torino with a 428 engine. The car is originally a 390 car and I'd like to better verify the current 428 engine. The engine is still in the car and the owner is not too familiar with Ford part numbers, and neither am I for that matter. All I have to go on right now is one image of the engine from the front of the car, and the following #'s, block C7ME-A and intake C9ZE-9425-B. I am not able to inspect the car personally, as it is in a different state. There is no carb with the engine and the owner is not able to identify if the exhaust is 428 CJ style or not. I am trying to at least verify if the exhaust pattern is staggered as opposed to vertical. Can anyone help with what little information I have provided? Are there any other external visible clues, perhaps the smog fittings on the exhaust, or??? By the way, this engine may not be a CJ, but perhaps a regular 428.
Thanks in advance for any help.
