460 Wanted

[cj41foley]

I've made up my mine to put a 460 in my 86' Bronco and get rid of the fuel injected 302. Anyone no where a old car or truck is with a 460? Anyone want to buy a 302 with fuel injection? How much should I ask for the 302, it has fuel injection and air conditioning.?

put a 7.3 in it !!!!


I wanna do that to a 79 F250 4x4 some day

[cj41foley]

I found a 1984 Ford E350 van for $300 bucks, it has the big DAna 60 or 70 rear, 460 big block and C6 auto. I will just have to change out the tailshaft on the tranny to make it work on a transfercase. Guy said the 460 was running when it was parked 4 years ago. I plan on going ahead and building it anyway b/4 I put it in. Oh yeah I just have to drive 750 miles to go get it, but I figure about 4 tanks of fuel at $75 a tank so thats $300 on fuel, $300 for van, and a motel room for one night, that still aint bad for a 460 and a dana rear end. Then I can scrap the rest of the van here and probably still get about $150 to $200 for it at the scrap metal yard.

Ok well you better add in the 129 dollars for the new motor mounts. If you want another C-6 I got one 50 bucks takes it. It is 2 wheel drive but I know this trans is good. Hey do you want some extra tops as well. I got 2 of them 100 each.

I have a good friend of mine who is a transmission man and he will build a c6 for me for about $200 bucks including parts, as far as tops go, man I had a couple of spare tops and give them away about 6 months ago to a friend who had a Bronco, at the timer I didn't have and had not planned on getting another one. I can probably get one back from him. I appreciate it though Big Country. So all I have to do is buy new motor mounts and that BIG OLE 460 will drop right down in them frame rails right? I'm ready to fell that big block torque . I had a pretty well built 351 Windsor in my last Bronco but I've never owned a big block in one.

Correct, new motor mounts and it will drop in correct.

That is where I got my motor mounts when I did this swap. If your bronco had the 351Modified in it you would already have the C-6 in it. But you say you have the 351Windsor. What year bronco is this again.

my Bronco now is a 1986 and it has a 302, my last Bronco had a 351 Windsor

Oh ok, well you know your engine wiring harness is pretty much useless and anything else for that 302. That website I gave you has everything you would need to do this conversion though.
