Chris' 2wd f150 460 build thread
Ive decided to actually make an official build thead. Seeing as alot of guys are here, its a good way to keep tabs on what gets done. First off its an 1984 F150 xl. It was an original 300 automatic combination with a 2:73 9 inch. but the truck belonged to a few different guys in the last little bit. But ive bought it for next to nothing when the done up 351 windsor split in half. Its got a completely built small block c6 and a limited slip 9'' with 3:50 gears. The cab upon taken apart the interior i noticed around the windshield is damn near shot, as well as down in the firewall where the fender mounts.

heres my donor truck, its a 76 f150 camper special i think. It has a 460 and c6 with a 9'' with 3:25 gears. I know shes some rough and i should have left it there, but it was given to me to get out of the yard. so me and my dad went down with the deck truck and drug it to the shop. i checked the coolant and oil and everthing seemed fine, the truck did however sit for 10 years, but he swears it has only 30,000 original miles. The 460 will be gone through and built just a little over stock. I may get a transmission shop to swap the internals from the small block c6 to the big block. the 76 even has factory air setup lol

oh yea, the truck sat for 12 or so years, ran perfect when parked there however just was getting rough. they had it on a farm, a 86 year old man had it. they had it down in a field next to the salt water. Im hoping its not stuck. either way ive got a source with all kinds of blocks and early 429 stuff. is it possible to take my built small block c6 and swap everything to my 460 c6?
