Can someone please tell me how to identify 66-67 428 fe. I have ckd. bore and stroke- 4.13x3.98. Trying to figure out crank and block. the block #C6ME-A, under the oil filter adapter it looks like 6M28. It has a 1.850 converator nose pilot and a counter weight on the flexplate. Thanks for any info. Steve

I have driven the starliner a little over 110 miles, on the interstate and around town and have pulled the plugs several times and they look really good. A nice tan color and runs a lot better. # 4 and 8 plugs are a little dark at idle but do clean up. I will try to get a picture on it on this site soon. Thanks again for the help. Steve

Thanks for all of the tips!! It only fouls the plugs (autolite 45) at a idle, driving above that it don't seem to bother them. I drove it out to the US Nationals every day and it was fine. About 25 miles of Interstate each way. I have them gapped at .035 and valves set at .025, timing 12 deg. w/vac hose off. Total of 36 deg. with it on the dist. Have pertronix 40,000 v/coil 1.5 ohm and Pertronix Ignitor in the dist. New Taylor Pro Wires. I ran an positive lead from the battery to the 12volt side of coil and it didn't make any difference. It has 10-12 " of vac. at a idle approx 1200 rpms in netural. 10" of vac @  700-800 in gear. Changed the intake gaskets but nothing helps. The bottom side of intake is fine blocked heat passage on intake. It runs around 160 deg. when hot. I had drag raced upto May of this yr. and sold my race car. Sold everything I had. Then found this starliner in the Toledo area. I took my first ride in a new 401hp Starliner in 61 and have wanted one since. I have owned a 63 Gal. 500 with 427,425hp, Hi-po 65 Must. 2- 428 CJ 69 Fairlanes 70 Must S/Pro w/487. Thanks again

The engine was in the car when I bought it. I was told it had a 427 solid lifter cam. It does have hollow lifters and C1AE heads. I am pulling it out in Nov. and them I will know what I have. It also has mechanical fuel pump and it looks stock. Restrict the oil flow to the heads using a 90 jet. I have installed a PVC valve and no diff. switched back to road tube. It has  150# of compression on 8 holes. It only seems to foul the plugs when at a idle.
