My cars gonna be big-block STUNNIN'! - Automotive Forum

DLISH · 08-25-2008, 10:07 PM

I picked up this 428 cj today for my Fairlane. It was built for a cobra kit car when the guy found a (real)427 so. The motors just broken in & makes 400hp & 430tq here at altitude. I also got an oem 428 bellhousing & flywheel & full mallory ign(might swap to msd).

DLISH · 09-12-2008, 03:44 AM

Www.myspace.com/dsfdlish I have a couple photo albums

Crazy D · 09-14-2008, 07:57 AM

Looks like a 66 fairlane . I would probably spend some money on doing work to the heads getting them to flow better .

Edit : kinda looks like the engine was done up already .

Gixxer J · 09-14-2008, 10:14 AM

what kinda gas mileage you lookin to get outta that thing? maybe 7 or 8?

Reckless01 · 09-14-2008, 04:54 PM

those types of vehicles don't get MPG they get GPM (gallons per mile!)

My old mustang with a stroked out 351W got like 6mpg

sweet find, how much did you give for it?

so, now that you have the bellhousing and flexplate, are you gonna turn it into a 4 speed? i found this company that makes clutch set-ups for all cars, im buying one for my monte carlo (so i can put the tremec 6speed in it). they come with everything you need to convert your car into a standard, including the pedals.

im building a twin-turbo LT1 for my 72 monte carlo, but i just got a call from my friend this guy wants to cash me out for it. i really want to finish my monte, but i want another Grand National too.

DLISH · 09-26-2008, 04:13 PM

I'm just gonna keep the c6 for now(after sealing some leaks) I'm holding out for a tko500 for the right price. Quicktime sells an fe to t-5(tko500) bellhousing. I'm gonna run a hydraulic clutch set up. Just grabbed the picker earlier, gonna paint it tomorrow & buds are helping toss it in sun.

DLISH · 09-26-2008, 11:14 PM

my goal for this weekend is putting the 428 home.... gawd PLEASE let the driver side header not need too much fanagling around steering stuff...

Crazy D · 09-27-2008, 10:02 PM

There were a few fairlane 500's that came from the factory with 427's . I think you're gonna have more problems with the shock towers ,
more than the steering parts .

DLISH · 09-28-2008, 11:11 PM

390.427.428 all are physically the same size(all ford fe's). The driver side collector is in the way, but I'll fab a drop bracket that should fix that.

Crazy D · 09-29-2008, 09:35 AM

Wow , that looks tight . I hope you already put in the spark plugs
