I have the opportunity to buy a 69 Merc Marquis, with a 429. 9Z66K505601. What hp is this? Does it have the right heads? Thanks.

I bought one and it had full race ported heads(Dove-c) wink I'm not a ford man buy I personally think they are great engines....especially when you mix it with a 460. High reving 460 wink

Thanks. if its a 4bbl i think it was 375hpi have my books stored in the garage but if you want to know exact numbers i will look for them. if you need some performace parts i know where you can get a set of super cobrajet heads that flow 300int. & 200exh@ .600 lift they would be very trick on a lakeracer also a polished offy port-o-sonic plumbed for NOS, eagle chrome headers(marine use) oh the heads come with isky roller rocker screwin studs heads have no cracks never been welded on, i do believe they need only 2 valves replaced. Don't use any real trick dist when a stock ford w/mag. pickup works great with a MSD.
