Would they bolt to a 460? If not I wonder if it is actually a ZF

yes, the older 4 speeds had removeable bellhousings. swap to the correct bellhousing, and it will bolt right up

**dunno about input shafts, dont think it needs to be changed, but im not positive

The T-19 has a seperate bellhousing.
You can swap for a 460 pattern.
The 460 version T-19 had a low first gear, and the big truck version (think F-700) had an even lower first.
(nice for crawling)
There were three sets of ratios available for the T-19

Do you mean to say that there might be a difference between diesel and 460 gasser input shafts?
No, I don't think so. (not in this era)
You might have to change the pilot bushing.
And of course you need a clutch with the correct splines.

i didnt say that it was the max the heads can produce, I just said I had just built a motor a little while ago that made almost 460hp with light portwork on the iron heads.

460hp/600tq are good numbers, they just aren't particularly crazy from 460 ci.

Smooth idle, 87 octane, 1 hp/ci:

Smooth idle, 93 octane, and over 2 hp/ci.

Last AND least...smooth idle, 87 octane, FAR less than 1 hp/ci.

I had a 4.6 that was a bolt on queen and made over the 1hp per cube (then had a 175 shot of nitrous)
I built an 03 cobra, made 550 to the wheels with just a ported blower and bolt ons (through stock cats and manifolds even) very impressive car.
And I'm driving around one of those pathetic efi 351 engines in my dd truck. (hopefully long tubes and stainless exhaust will free up some ponies and mpg but it really needs a cam swap)

If looking for a trans, ditch the 4speeds(no OD) and go to a ZF5. Just as strong and you get OD

And as far as heads go. Almost any off the shelf aluminum head will flow better than a ported and polished set of SCJ heads
