If I owned that motor, I wouldn't have revved it over 4500 rpm either in fear of breaking something.

Re: Boss 429 engine
It might be an original but without a picture of the casting number it's just a Ford block.

Re: Boss 429 engine
Looks like someone's already posted it over on the Boss 302 registry. This group's seems waaaay more on the ball trying to reunite drivetrain components/paperwork than we are here in the Cheby world, check out the thread titles @ this Boss site link... http://www.boss302.com/smf/index.php?board=18.0 [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif[/img] ~ Pete

"429 HP" is cast on the front of the block - a little hard to se in the photo. Looks like this

Re: Boss 429 engine
If the pictures I was sent are of the block for sale the casting number and the HP429 casting mark are correct for an exclusive Boss 429 engine block.

Are the numbers cast into the block at the starter area C9AE-6015-A, or C9AE-B? The first is a production block, the second is a service block.
