I suggest a search as this has been covered a bunch. basicly a set of L&L frame perches and motor mounts should be all that necessary if the 460 is complete from oil pan to intake. install a new hi quality clutch while your doing this swap it will save you big time down the road.

The towers are the same. Trans Dapt & Performance Unlimited Are 2 other motor mount mfgrs. If one of my L&L's ever break I'm going to try the Trans Dapt next. I wasn't too happy with the L&Ls. You should have a rear sump pan if the engine came from a 4x4.
