I bought a truck with a bad transmission and the guy has some things unhooked already... starter, torque converter, radiator is out, transfer case is out, etc.
I want to fire this engine before spending my loot on a new transmission.
I can take the belt off so I'm not spinning a dry water pump.
But what about the torque converter? Can a 460 be started and ran without the torque converter hooked up? We used to do our Chevy motors like this, but I'm a BB Ford newbie and don't wanna screw this up.
