1968 Mustang 427 with T/E & C6.

Wally, I followed the link to ID this block. Maybe you can help me out a little more to positive ID. I am confused C6ME-A is cast on the side. Also has 352 cast.
Popped freeze plugs and 428 is not cast in there unless I cant see it(shouldnt be to hard). The heads have C7AE-A casting
Likely I will have to get the measuring tape out I spose
Cast Iron / 1.60" primary openings / 1.70" secondary openings.
1968/69 Fairlane/Torino 428CJ / 1968/70 Mustang 428CJ.

I've typed this jazz over 300 times here on FTE:
You cannot go by casting numbers on: 352/360/390/410/428 blocks to ID what size the engine is...because ALL were cast as 352's.
Only when the blocks were finished, could they be some other size.
That 352 was cast into the block on most 1965/76 FE engines. It's a foundry mark, so...it does not mean diddly-squat.
You may find that one C6ME block is a 352, another could be a 390, still another could be a 410.....or a 428.
Casting numbers cannot be cross referenced to actual Ford part numbers.

I had a guy knock $100 off of a 390 I bought once, pulled the motor and showed him that it was actually a 352.

As far as the intake, use an aluminum one if you want,,,, or not. But if its take it or leave it, definitely take it.
I was just confuzzed over the 428 casting not being in the block."You may find that one C6ME block is a 352, another could be a 390, still another could be a 410.....or a 428"
I aint even going to try and explain myself anymore.
Thanks for the help with the intake #'s.I am OUT
