Putting 300 I 6 tranny on 460?

[Diesel1050]

Found a cheap 460, and want to swap it in place of the 300 straight six my truck has now. My truck is a 1990, and has the 4 speed stick w/overdrive, which I really want to keep. It is the tranny with the bellhousing cast into it. Would this be a direct bolt-up? Truck will be a designated off-road and mudbogging truck, and this is the ideal setup....

No
460 has it's own bolt pattern.

Does anyone know of an adapter available?

Even if there were, the 460 would destroy that transmission. You should look for a zf 5 spd

Doesn't matter if it's a ZF, Borg, Etc. The Mazda tranny (Weak one for the 8th gen rigs) was never used in 250's. Far as I know it's a ZF-5. Considering the bellhousing is part of the tranny, that leads me to believe it's not the Borg-Warner.

Just looked at the tranny and it is DEFINITELY A ZF5! Has the PTO port and everything.....the "D" is in a full white bubble, not just circled. My bad!

The 4spd could be had behind the 460. Off road would be good trans
