In Part 5 of the build, we’re going to be seeing the camshaft installed and also the cylinder heads. This engine is getting closer and closer to being ready to install and fire!
After getting the crank installed in preparation for hanging rods and pistons on it in Part 2, the rods and pistons got prepped, including mounting the pistons to the rods and also file fitting the pistons rings, in Part 3. Scott has taken us through the whole process and is getting that much closer to this engine making noise!
Rebeldryver Scott is back with Project Mud Bomber, whose 428 has been getting machined and prepped for a full rebuild. Because parts were scarce and the machine shop a bit slow, this one has taken a little while but now it is ready to go together. Scott has gotten it all done and ready for assembly and this is the next video in the build series, so watch, learn, and stay tuned for more.

Video Description:
We finally got our 428’s heads back from the machine shop and we got busy installing them. These are factory medium riser heads that came off our 1964 Galaxie’s original 352 FE big block and should be a big improvement over the 428’s tiny heads that were for low end torque. We also installed our Melling Performance camshaft that has .512/.512 lift, 218/218 duration, and 110* LSA.
