Wilt, Congrats on joining the ERA club. I wish you all the very best with your build.

On a side note: If you are chasing a 428 build at a reasonable price, you may want to start frequenting FordFe.com
You have a fair bit of lead time before before you need the engine. You may find some good, well priced parts fishing over there.
Most of those guys are FE junkies and well meaning blokes, and will help steer you on your engine build.

Enjoy

PS: Fwiw, Blykins built me my engine (and supplied the drive train) from the other side of the world. For me distance (and money) wasn't as important as who I could trust.
