Yes the AEM will run the 429 big block. And if you order it from Bob Kurgan he can provide you with a base tune and support.

His new shop is in GA now I think....

I would call Bob anyway to see about using a crank trigger setup with the AEM race box since AEM does not make an EPM for a 429 ford engine. I am sure the EPM could be modified to work but it may be just as easy to get the race box and use a crank trigger with a set of late model GM truck coils....:D

Yeah I haven't been online much since I changed jobs.....working to many hours....

Oh and just an FYI I had forgot that Thomas T. had modified a distributor to work with the AEM EPM and big block Ford. He had to do quite a bit of machining lathe/mill work to get it setup but turned out rather nice..
