well it is a 428 but i think only the tbird ..as i was told..it does not have any reinforceing ribs i see in the pictures.but still a 428,with a cast crank will it handle much in the way of performance building or should I keep looking for a CJ motor? and has anyone used scat performance parts.?? i understand they are made offshore so i am looking for something made here before we can't buy anything made here
