RE: What type of 428 is it? By rhunt - 04/13/2004 11:41:47 AM; IP 162.39.117.27 I think it's just a plain 428 like a galaxie would have had in it. This engine appears to have parts from different engines. It has a D4TE mirror image 105 block, D2TE AA heads, C6?? rods and a C6AE intake manifold. I am not sure what casting code is on the crank yet. The crank is probably a 1U. Years ago this engin developed a hole in a piston after a huge vacuum leak caused the engine to run lean. I replaced that piston and it had been fine for many years. Then about a month ago the climate control broke apart and caused another vacuum leak. I repaired this leak and about a day or so later I noticed the engine has a skip in it. When I checked it out I noticed the extreme blowby from at least one cylinder. I have just stopped at that point and decided to perform a rebuild on the shortblock.

This thread, so far...
