All Boss 429 Mustangs and 70-71 429 SJC Torino/Cobras and Cyclones and Mustang/Cougar in 1971 were the only cars that they came in. They really are pretty beefy with just the two bolt mains. ------------------ Alex Denysenko Co-Administrator and Moderator/ non 65-66 Mustang owner sensitivity co-ordinator NHRA/IHRA/SRA member NHRA and IHRA SS/LA National Record Holder '00, '01, & '02 Fleet of FoMoCo products including 88 ASC McLaren Mustang #28 Part time secret agent license #0089 US Class Nationals link IP: Logged

The two casting numbers that may be 4 bolts are D0VE-A and D1VE-A. The CJ's usually have CJ cast in the lifter valley. The best 2 bolt 429/460 block IMHO is the D0VE-A. It has the thick main webs. The D1VE blcok has the thinner main webs in most cases. But both blocks usually can be bored .110" over, .080" for sure without sonic checking. If someone knows what they have, be prepared to pay over $500 for one of the above blocks. [This message has been edited by Just Strokin (edited 03-22-2002).] IP: Logged
