460 Swap
You will need all the 460 accessories,Alt.,PS Pump,etc. If you are going to keep the 4speed tranny, check the clutch and TO bearing and replace if needed while you will have it all apart, the 400 flywheel/pressure plate will bolt right up, if you are using an Automaggit it will bolt right up as well. You will need the 460 radiator, the one for the 400 will have you overheating quick! The Exhaust will need to be altered! You will need to upgrade your fuel system to handle the larger motor, smallest carb for 460 using VE calculations is a 750CFM. DO NOT REUSE OLD HARDWARE!!! New hardware is inexpensive enough this should be a no brainer, but some believe that the old hardware is good enough, until something BAD happens! And last but not least you will need new motor mounts, the towers have enough material to alter them for a good fit.
