Ford 428 FE. Complete running.400 rwhp. Paint,Polished 7k.

Yep, selling my first pride & much joyed 428 FE, for a soon to be pride & enjoyed, 482 aluminum side oilier.

SELL- $7,000 + shipping. (live near Lincoln/Omaha Nebraska)

I know times are hard but, I need to sell this motor to get my 482 build going so, I'm offering a $250.00" finders fee", to whom ever sells it. ;)

It was built for show & go. It is not a full drag race engine.

I'm having Keith Craft building me a aluminum 482 side oilier with some where around 625-650 HP/TQ. So, I'm selling my 428 FE with 400 HP at the wheels. I have the build spec sheet and chassis dyno information. It will be sold almost ready to run, minus the distributor and thermostat housing.

This build will be in two magazines and the artical will be about the differences between the "old school 60's version side oiler and the newer all aluminum side oiler". 2010 technology with the blocks, heads, rotating assembly, machining advances, parts and even the engine & chassis dyno's.

Photo's and video will be taken about the block, brand of parts and during assembly. It will then be run on the engine dyno and Mustang Chassis Dyno, and both will be explained about the statistics.

All of this build process and information, will also be on some websites, including "Youtube".

The engine has 3,600 miles on it, with no issues.

600 lift.
110 degree of lobe separation. Very lumpy, great sounding motor and good performing engine. Click on the you tube link below to hear it.

The heads are iron and were ported to the max. I'll see if I can find the flow bench numbers. The valve train are HS rollers that are shaft mounted with all new end stands. I rebuilt the engine in 2004. It is very strong running.

I sanded the block smooth and painted it my body color. You can scuff it down and paint any color you want.

Chrome "Pent Roof" valve covers. (not the alum. covers in the one photo)

I have a Tremec 3550 and clutch/flywheel, that could also go with the engine for a decent price. This would be a great combo if your building a cobra, up-grading or for a Hot Rod.

To the buyer, I will guarantee it runs as good as it does now in my cobra. I will also shoot a video of it running before I remove it. I'm as honest as possible about this great engine. If you have any questions, please ask.

It has won 4-"Best Engine" trophy's, and those were big shows, not some church parking show with limited cars. lol
On the "Hot Rod Power Tour" in KC, the car won "Best Ford Muscle". That was cool.

Here's a link of last years "Hot Rod Power Tour" in Kansas. I was feeling ill so I had two of my buddies drive her home. If you have very good stereo speakers on your computer, crank it up.

Not a burn out or high rpm's, just for fun.
