The 600 might actually make the 460 get 10 mpg like some people claim. Until you put your foot in it. I would try it personally see what it does. I know a 460 will take a whole lot more, but doesnt necessarily need a whole lot more.

I have a 600 Holley (list 9834) on the 460 in my '78 F-250 4x4 Super Cab. It ran harder and had a bunch more power with a 750 (list 3310), but the mileage was...
I have had the 600 on the truck since '97 and haven't had any issues.
I've never seen 10 mpg with the 460. I did get 9.9 mpg a couple times.
