Those are what I am looking at

One last thing all I keep dragging this thread out here...... As I am looking for a 460 right now I see they have a 460 (7.5L), internal balance
and a 460 (7.5L), external balance whats the difference?

Not much difference. The older ones (78 and older) are internally ballanced and some time in 79 Ford went to the D9 block which is externally ballanced. Either engine will be fine for your swap.

ive run a 460 and 429 in trucks,personaly i like a 9 over the 60 for mud drags and daily drivin but the 60 will out tow a 9 hands down.

BFG still makes 16.5 A/Ts theyre expensive but they raised the price on all tires when gas went up. Youll be lookin at over 1000 if ya get new aluminum wheels and tires. Tires alone will be 7-900 this is for 33x12.50x16.5s. Id look into them heads not sure if the hemisphereical combustion chamber is the normal thing with those motors but if not then definitly get em and have em checked out and gone through. Also not sure how close ya are to the state line but heres where I get all my stuff.
Just scroll down to the wheels and tires category.
