I have never even seen a 428 in person but I would guess that the heads and a couple of items on the engine would be worth that. If it is complete, that could be a fun project. If you can spin the crank and inspect the block, that would be good. You might have a real find! Of course if it ran, that would be to good to be true. Let us know what happens. Thanks, WEK.
Note: Not sure if it has the FE or FT versions like the 427.

Is it a 428 or a 429?

What Bill said; big difference between the two and in their fair market value price. 428 is an FE and 429 is a 385 series.

If its a 428 FE for $650, it's a great deal. Perfect for a period correct engine in a Cobra

Okay so it's not a 428 it's a 390 with the third webbing in the block. Can I turn that into a 428
