FE Technical Forum / porting for Blue thunder high riser heads
« on: December 21, 2024, 06:15:06 PM »
Hello All.  I am looking for a head porter that is familiar with the Blue Thunder High Riser heads.  I have a virgin set still new in the box.  If anyone is aware of anyone that has done or is willing to discuss porting my heads I am very interested in contacting these porters.

PS. I have, in the past communicated with Barry Robotnick who had the port work done on my Blue Thunder Medium Riser heads.  He relayed that his head porter went out of business that DID the high riser heads.  Barry is a great guy and I would use him but as it stands to my knowledge he is not interested in doing these heads.  Also, I have discussed this with Blair Patrick and he is not interested in doing the heads either. 

Thank You

FE Technical Forum / 1964 390 block with extra main webbing and cross bolt bosses
« on: May 24, 2024, 10:37:03 AM »
Hello all

I have a block as described in my subject line.  I have yet to tear it down but will soon.  Though I will sonic test the bores I was wondering if this block had thicker cylinder walls than the normal 390 block.  My thought is that these blocks were being cast for a 427 bore but did not have enough wall thickness to pass inspection.  I am probably wrong but I would like to know what you experts have to say.  Thank you for your attention to this inquiry.

FE Technical Forum / shaving cyliinder head surface to increase compression
« on: December 04, 2021, 10:17:19 AM »
Hello to all.  I would like to know the amount of material I can safely remove from a head surface of a set of C4AE heads.  I know the combustion chamber on my heads are right at 72cc's.  I want to decrease the chamber size to 68-67cc's.  We have experimented with a junk C4Ae head and found that around .010" is equal to 1cc.  I would like to know if removing .040 to .050" is safe to do.  My good heads have not been cut yet  I appreciate your help.

FE Technical Forum / questions about 428 block and 67 GT500 heads
« on: March 07, 2021, 07:06:32 PM »
Hello  i am hoping the expertise on the forum can help me out with a few questions.

I have a 428 block C6ME-A with a casting date of 7B23.  It has a hand scratched "A" and the extra  heavy main webs.

My block question: There is a 3/8" pipe plug threaded into the block skirt by the oil pan rail on the passenger side of the block.  This is a factory installation location as there is a boss in the casting to accommodate this plug.  I have not seen this before and I wanted to know what this is about.  Any help is greatly appreciated.  Pictures show the inside with the boss and the outside with the plug.

The second topic is using the this block assemble a 428 like that used in the 1967 Shelby GT 500.  Given the date code and casting number does this block qualify for this application?  Also, I have researched the heads for this and all articles and forums lead me to head casting C7AE-A.  Is this correct?  and I would assume that these heads had the smaller 2.05 intake x 1.54 exhaust.  Is that correct as well?

I have very interested in dialoging with those that are informed of the parts needed to assemble a 428 for the GT500 67 model.

Thank you for your attention to this email.

Hello
Has anyone ran Gene Bergs Weber Style Carbs, 58 mm bore on a FE Weber style manifold?  I want to dialog with someone who has.  I know there are alot of points that need to be addressed about engine specifications relative to using these.  I would be most happy to discuss application as it pertains to the engine, car and usage with the responder. 

Thank you
