Re: 429 CJ or not?????

Yep, regular 4 barrel 429 ThunderJet. If it was a CJ, it would have "D00E-R" casting numbers on the heads. The D0VE block can be the same as a 429 CJ or a 429 ThunderJet, both will have 2 bolt mains, but if it was a 429 SCJ block, it will have 4 bolt mains.
D0VE 9425 B is a standard 429 TJ intake as well.
The 429 TJ motor is still a very good unit, it was quite powerful and rated at 360 horses. You have the early model high compression engine.
