Post pics of your lifted F350's!

The 460 was made to be a stump puller, you have to do allot of work on a 460 to make it a racing engine.

Well I know quite a few guys on other sites that would beg to differ. The 460 is extremely easy and fairly cheap to build. Now given, it'll just be raw power and still won't wanna wind up much higher than 6k...but yes, the 460 is a capable racer. But I get what you're saying Tex...it's usually not the frst engine guys go after to build a racer.

I never noticed your truck was a 4x4 awesome a short bed 4x4..
Any ways if you stuck a 460 in that bad boy it would be unstoppable

right, but what just occured to me.. if i got the 460, i think id have to get a new tranny etc.. i dont think it will bolt up.. just gunna stick with the 351.. direct bolt up.. motor mounts and tranny are all the same.. plus, no clearance issues.. i dont know if the IFS will be too stressed with the 460.. or even clear it..

You're right...I think me and Don kinda hinted towards the 460 not bolting up, go with a 351 and it's plug and play. You're probably right about the added stress too. I'd be willing to bet the 460 is at least 300#'s heavier than what a 351 would be.

Yeah it's a different bolt pattern on the bellhousing for the BB-- you'd have to replace the trans too.

All i said is it would be cool, didn't tell him to do it.
