I'm not surprised I messed up with regards to the 428 Pontiac, but who else had either a 429c.i. engine or hp rating?

Cadillac had a 429 ci engine. Lincoln had a 430.

HAPPY HOT ROD LINCOLN DAY! Now I think I know the reason George Thorogood, created that song (or at least it sounds good), after you enlightened me of the Lincoln 430 mill. Cool!!!!

Interesting what else I found when doing more research on things relative to this month. In trying to find out why the '63 Chevy Impala/Bel-Air/Biscayne wasn't allowed in stock and super stock with the Z11 Chevy 427 "Mystery Motor", I was reminded that the L88 427 was rated at both 430 & 425hp, thus meaning 425 wasn't exclusive to the 426 Hemi(the '63 Chevy 409 also had a 425hp rating). Furthermore, 401 isn't exclusive to AMC, as "The 401 aluminum heads (PN 12363408) are listed on the GM Performance Parts Web site as the NHRA-approved engine parts for the motor they were building" the 427 L88...(source, SUPER CHEVY).
