Engine numbers

CT - 308826
42-90121
42-43317

So not a B29 but perhaps you should be looking for a B-24

The number (420902) provided by Nokose is not an Air Force s/n for the engine. It is most likely the Manufacturers s/n, which has nothing in common with the s/n assigned to it by the Air Force.
In your information above, CT - 308826 is the Manufacturers S/N. A quick guess could be CT - Continental built.
