429 Big Block

RDRZ · 09-11-2001, 07:20 PM

I might be able to get some heads off of a 427 short block. Will these fit my 1973 429 big block? Also, I am having trouble with picking out a carb. I am going to get a speed demon, but don't know if I should get 2 650's, 2 750's, or what?

Is this a 427 ford FE big block or a stroked out 427 small block. Either way, these heads will not fit on a 429 (385 series) big block. However the 427 FE is a rare gem and those heads might be worth something to someone.
