Thanks!
Perfect!
I was not sure the pattern on the 428 block was the same as the earlier 389/421 block. The 428 got treated to a 455 crank and rods, so I guess it's a "stroker"?

Since I don't have a set of SD heads from that era, they would become "wall hangers" for my basement. Perhaps someday....

I did not know that. I thought the four speed came out in 1959, but that might have been in the full sized Chevys? Note the interesting read leather "boot" around the bottom of the...

My older brother had a '62 GP back in the late 60s, I was jealous as to how well that car was appointed on the interior. It was one of the more comfortable cars I had ever been in at the time :).
