Two quick questions
Okay, so I have a 72 F250. I've blown my 360. I have a junkyard 390 that came with a C6. My two questions are A) What is going to be required to drop a 460 in? Will I need new motor mounts, or will it bolt in place, etc. And B) Will the C6 bolt up to the 460? Thanks!

I kinda figured it would work out. Thanks. And yeah, I'm just not sure if this 390 is any good. Thanks for all the info though. I appreciate it!
