More 429ci engine info:
Hi,
I want to thank everyone for their help in my previous posts. The garage is finally finished and the Mustang and Galaxie are enjoying being inside for the winter.
I now have the 429 in my possession, which is also in the garage. I got some information off the engine. On the intake manifold I found the following casting:
3 D0VE 9425 B
F4 2A6 (or G?)
On the head I unfortunately found:
D2VE-AA, meaning, as I have read, the heads are pretty much useless for a performance rebuild.
Is this engine worth rebuilding in the future? If you remember my other posts, the Galaxie has a 390ci engine in it and I am considering putting the 429 in the Galaxie. Is it worth my money to build up the '72 429?
Thanks for the help.
Justin

I bought the 76 in August , but haven't been able to work on it. When I get a chance I'll post some pictures.
