I actually bought one of these engines. Story was a '68 GT500KR had a blown motor (short Block), and was replaced with a 427 short block, keeping the 428 CJ heads, intake, and carb. So, this engine was really a 427 CJ.

I now need to put the date matching heads/intake on ebay for sale when I get a chance.
