Back to looking for a useable 428 block
« on: May 19, 2025, 03:51:33 PM »
The block I thought was good, isn't. So I am still looking for a useable 428 block or useable Mirror 105 block. Any leads or sources will be appreciated.
Thanks, Chuck S. (in OK.)

Don't know if your lucky or not but have a just as torn down 105 block I saved just because it was 105 some 20+ years ago... Meant to have it sonic checked checked but never did.  It was a 360 version (short cranks long gone) as indicated by weenie rods.. I recall.  I remember Dan Cane (sp) of FE magazine ?  went through a handful of 105's before he got a happy 428 bore out of 105. Supposedly better on core shift.

I have no idea of value so what's it worth to you ball park?... and realistically you can inspect /take it from Jacksonville FL 32216

Thanks for responding. If I had a 105 block I would not try to bore it to 4.130, a very low probability of success. Driving to Florida and back from Oklahoma is too crazy, even for me. Chuck S.
