My Motors Manual jumps right over the 1976 model year for Mercury but it shows 202 Hp for 1975 and 197 HP for 1977...so I guess your right at 200 HP for the 460. Truck 460's come with a better rod that has a broached bolt area with a football shaped head on the rod bolt. They also generally have a rear-sump pan rather than a front-sump for passenger cars.

In '75 the hp was 216, in '76 it was 202. In '77 the 460 was not an option. Note: these are Cougar specific numbers, not Mercury numbers. There is a few different HP ratings for the 460 car motor, depending on the application.
