....Not to start off negative, but if the shop claims to understand what it means to retain "numbers matching" and then suggests a striker build, that doesn't make sense.
Finding 429 stuff isn't impossible, it's all over craigslist. TRW (Federal Mogul now?) still makes. 429 CJ style piston.
Your stock parts can be saved, it just takes more money and labor. Let me know if your crank is used up, I can send you a CJ crank that I won't use any time soon.
A good forum is www.460ford.com, there are plenty of experts there, probably some shops that could do the build for you. There's a guy here in Warren who would be great, not too far from you in Ontario...
