428 CJ rebuild questions
By Daryl - 06/11/2006 9:14:53 PM; IP 71.98.7.236
Hello all. I have a 69 mach 1 with a 428 CJ that is in need of a rebuild. It doesnt smoke until its warm, and then its like a mosquito fogger. My question is, what is the best route to go for a rebuild? I was planning on a 428 CJ kit that Maddog sells for 600.00, having it bored .030', the crank .010". Ive heard the Cjs had oil issues, and bad pistons, is this true. Im planning on using an Edelbrock performer RPM cam kit, what will I need for rockers etc, or will stock be ok? Its going to be driven fairly nice, but I dont want it to scatter all over the road, so should I balance the package? have the crank champfered, oil holes enlargened? Im using a PI intake, Holley 735 carb. Im going to have the heads magnafluxed along with the block too. any other things I need to do for the 428? Thanks much..
This thread, so far...
