Engine Swap

Dear Gang,

Does anyone know if a 460 will fit into an 1972 F100 that formally had 302?

Thanks,

Tony in New Mexico

Thanks,

that was just what I was looking for.

The truck I have has a 302 in it and an automatic trans. Some guy stopped me at the gas station the other day and noticed my 79 Lincoln Town coupe. He said he had one like it and wanted to get rid of it.

I figured I could use it for parts. I am in need of a rear end. I also wondered if the 460 was swapable in with the truck.

It looks so.

Tony
