Well guys, I don't really care what block it was cast as originally. I've measured the bore and the stroke and it is definitely a 428 motor. Bore (4.128 measured) and stroke (3.982 MEASURED) can't be anything else. The given dimensions for the bore and stroke are bore: 4.132 and stroke: 3.98. So it could have started life as a 302, but it's a big boy now.

Thanks for all your help guys.
