V10man, what book it that? And where could I get my hands on one? Thanks for posting that. Also does your book show the hp and torque numbers for each year of the 460?

so if I put some roller rockers in my 460 how much hp do you think that it would free up? would it even be worth doing the roller rocker arms?
