Unhappy Bought 428, got a 390
I bought a 428 block off ebay (fordmaster351) but it appears he sold me a 390 bored 0.08 over.
It was bought by him from someone in Nashville, and I guess he was just trying to pass his problem along. All cylinders mike at or near 4.13 and it is a 66 model, CME6-?. The block is in awsome shape, altho I wanted a 428. Assuming I cannot get this worked out (returned,) can anyone think of a good way to turn my lemon into a cherry? Stroker kits, etc? I am not turned off about the 390, just miffed at the outcome. Or, does anybody want to trade?
