    MysteryMachine's Big Block 514 Project

    557 that be nice. I have heard and seen also, people after they clean a block ,spray it with something then put like a big garbage bag over it and tie it shut, and it keeps the block from rusting.I'm not sure what they used though.I would go ahead and have it hot tanked anyways and machined when...

    MysteryMachine's Big Block 514 Project

    Ha you got it , and yes thats a 69 block. C is for 60's, D for 70's, E for 80's,and so on. I would start cleaning it ,get out a wire brush , clean out all the bolt holes, remove the old left over peices of the head gaskets to. Got any pics of the underside, crank area? Thats a nice stroker kit...

    C9E Blocks

    As soon as I got the block even if I didn't have any extra money I would start cleaning it best I could. I had a couple 429's like I said before,one put in a truck, later got rid of the truck. Anyways I cleaned that block really good and painted it Ford blue,even painted the heads,it looked...

    C9E Blocks

    Yea you would probably have to have a front cage built that continues all through the car lol. Some guy on the corral was doing that with his mustang.

    C9E Blocks

    A big block stroker though with turbos would be sick, the torque alone would be insane.

    C9E Blocks

    So you gonna paint the block ford color, or same as your car? Gonna make for a fun project,nothing like a big block mustang. I always wanted to see a big block stroker with turbos lol, overkill I'm sure.

    C9E Blocks

    Yea there is 5, most 429/460 blocks were 2 bolt not 4, but you could have the block drilled and tapped for 4 bolt caps. Here is a ebay link to a cheap set. You could go that route and upgrade with the 4 bolt caps maybe...

    C9E Blocks

    You should be able to stroke 1 of those blocks,as long as you can get the cylinders freed.As for the one that threw the rod,I don't know. Junkyards should have a 460 block, they made em up until 96.A lot of old cars, trucks from 70's-90's, motorhomes, would have them. The 460 was built from 68-96.

    C9E Blocks

    Well I can see the 1 is a dove block which is a 70 model,if its a complete shortblock it be worth it. I would soak those cylinders real good though before even attempting to take those 2 blocks apart. You would have a good starting point take the best of the 3, and what you don't need, sell or...

    C9E Blocks

    Yea I hate that about ebay always have people wait to outbid you at the very last few seconds so you can't outbid them. There is usually though quite a few 429/460 shortblocks or blocks on ebay.
