Put it in a 5.0L! There is a kit available to do it.

yes and yes, see if you can grab the tranny, usually a C-4, and the 9" rear, thats the way they came. The pumpkin from the 9" is worth it. You can get a housing and axles from anyplace to fit whatver you put it in.

Actually (seriously) those 460s are pretty good for American engines, they can put out lots-o-power with minor mods. Don't know what mods exactly but maybe someone on a Ford forum would know



My vote would be Mustang conversion - you could use more gas than Mike's 20B
