Had a motor offered to me today. Can anyone tell me exactly what it is? Supposed to be a 428. Here are the #'s;
Back of the block...The large scribed "C"
Back of block flat area...G2363599 (hard to read)
Back of block...has the 3 screw in plugs.
Under oil filter...8F24, WI, V.
Side of block towards the front...13 DIF.
Front of block...has a 3 over a 352.
Any info greatly appreciated. It ran 2 years ago, been setting in a storage building unclaimed.

Its an FE,you will have to measure B&S to verify what it is.Aside from the fact that its a hyd lifter car engine not much else can be said.Pull the pan,CJs have different main bearing webbing and the con-rods are different.Crank # will help.CJs have a windage tray (can be seen from the outside)410 and 428 are long stroke engines (3.98)390 and 427 are short stroke (3.78)
Any heads on the engine.???------------------

Just noticed where you are from, did you by any chance have your car over on the Island last summer for any of the car shows? How about posting a picture of your car or emailing me one? ------------------
