Default 428 CJ block
Hey guys. I just bought what I was told was a 428 CJ block. The owner was very helpful, and honest. He pointed out the extra webbing on the mains, but since I've never really seen the inside of any other FE block, that didn't mean much to me. I know the CJ blocks have a "C" welded on the back. This block has that, but in all honesty it looks like a "G". I guess it could be a C but if it is, the guy at Ford who did it must have had a few too many the night before. So my question is- is there any such thing as a 428 block with a "G" on the back (and if so, what is it) or is it just a really sloppy "C"? Thanks!

BTW, he listed it as std bore, and I mic'ed up each cylinder to 4.13, so I think that's good.
