In 1971 you could get A 429 CJ And SCJ. Starting in 1972-73 the largest motor was a 351. 428 was dropped after 70 .

The government had nothing againt the large motors. They dropped the large motors beecause of the fuel shortage, and they cut the lead and dropped the octane level. So the extra cubic inches were a waste.

I would say that's not completely true as Ford continued to put 460 cubic inch engines in passenger cars up through 1979...
