On a different tangent..
I don't know about your 428's rebuild history.. but assuming it's a fresh rebuild it's possible to put a head gasket in backwards (180 deg out) and block the coolant flow path that brings the coolant from the block across the head, pulling the heat forward from the block and head towards the manifold outlet. This will leave you with a pretty much constant overheating problem, eventually frying that side of the motor. It's really easy to do. Ask me how I know.
...just a thought.
