Just got my 70 SCJ Eliminator back from KTL. Great job Tom! We are finalizing some of the details for a concourse restoration, and have come up with the following questions. These questions were already posed to Kevin Marti, Bill at Mansfield Mustang, and Scott Hollenbeck at the 428 CJ website with no resolution, so any help is much appreciated.
1. I double checked with Kevin Marti and he is certain that the engine code for this car is 425A, which is what the aluminum engine tag says. I cannot find a valve cover decal for 425A. Has anyone seen one for sale or know who makes these decals?
2. I have seen many 428 CJ engines with an "S" paint mark on the left front of the engine block beneath the head. My question is as follows: what does this mark stand for? Does it correlate with the engine tag (ie 425S), and therefore should my car have an "A" paint mark there?
Thanks for any insight!
