RE: Hey Royce, 428CJ or 427GTE which is faster ?

Skip,
They are all three pretty impressive. The 427 seems to rev a bit easier. I would have to say the 427 was slightly faster stock. Mine ran 13.80 at 104 when bone stock on a hot day at the Texas Motorplex back in 1995. Since then I have installed Edelbrock heads, Hooker headers, a Comp 280H cam, and a '67 Medium Riser 2-4V intake and carbs. At the same time a 428CJ crank and Wiseco pistons went in. It is much stronger but has so much low end torque that I can't get any traction on the street tires I am running.

The 428 CJ car is totally stock and runs 13.90's at 99 MPH.

The other 427 has never been on the strip but it feels pretty strong too. I am still working out carb jetting and can't sem to get the valves adjusted perfectly. It is a stock appearing 427 GTE motor but has a CJ crank and Isky solid cam hiding inside. I am going to install a set of Erson rockers this weekend and may try the carb from the 428 CJ to see what happens when a known good carb is installed.
