    Everybody, meet Thomas...

    Ok, I had some time to mess with this... and something is wrong in the 400 that I don't really want to deal with, especially since I have a good running 460 to put in it.One of the cylinders is puffing a fuel/air mixture out of the carb, and it likes to catch on fire. My kids thought it was...

    Everybody, meet Thomas...

    Thanks everyone for the comments! I tried to get the 400 fired up today to drive Thomas off the trailer and into the garage, but it doesn't seem like it's going to be easy start and it's quite cold working outside. I think that it would be better to gear my efforts toward swapping in one of my...

    Everybody, meet Thomas...

    Why is this truck named Thomas? I brought the whole family with me to buy this truck, and when I asked my two oldest kids (5 years old) what we should name this truck, they each said Thomas. I'm guessing maybe the color reminds them of Thomas the Tank Engine who they watch nonstop.This '68...

    Yo

    Hey all, I used to be on here every day, then I sold my old trucks (a '78 and a '79) along with their extra parts and kinda disappeared. Yesterday I bought a '68 F100 off Craigslist and now I'm back. The '68 needs some work, but overall I really like it! The truck was born with a 360 and 3...

    Noobie cam and intake swap...

    .Ok, I have pretty much no experience working on the insides of an engine. I replaced head gaskets on my '95 3.8 Mustang once, that's about it. I don't want to screw this up...I'm going to swap the cam, lifters, and intake on my '70 460. I may also want to smooth the bumps in the exhaust...

    Some 460 questions and discussion...

    Thanks to all who have replied, and thanks to Bill for the information and history of these engines. I've purchased a third complete 460 from a '78 Lincoln. This one has the metal can (saginaw?) type power steering pump. Still though, even with three different 460's to choose from, I still...

    Can somebody ID these motor mounts?

    FWIW - What I have learned about my motor mounts... I knew they were a conversion mount to put a 460 in a late 70's 4x4 F-Series, but I thought the entire package was made of custom parts. It is actually a stock 351M/400 rubber mount that bolts to an adapter plate that appears to be cut from...

    Can somebody ID these motor mounts?

    .Ok, I happened to stumble onto something... these appear to be stock 351M/400 mounts that bolt to the 460 adapter plates and I can buy stock replacements locally for about $20 a pair..

    Can somebody ID these motor mounts?

    .These are some 460 swap mounts that were in my 77.5 F250 4x4. They bolt to a steel plate that bolts to the block. Does anyone know what brand they are?

    Some 460 questions and discussion...

    .I have 2 460 engines, one runs and the other needs rebuilt. I'm putting one in my '93 Ranger along with a built C6. Headers will be 2" primary into a 3.5" collector.The running one is a D0VE-A block with D0VE-C heads.The not running one is from a '69 Lincoln and has C9 heads.I plan...

    1987 F350 with a 460?

    .I'm thinking of buying an '87 F350 that has a 460 and 4 speed manual transmission. It's a 2wd regular cab dual rear wheels, unknown gear ratio.From what I've read the engine is rated at 220hp and 360ft lbs of torque, which is far from impressive to me. What can be done to help this poor...
