460 interchange?
Will a 460 from a dump truck fit into a 79 ford 4wd? Is there a difference other than on having a front sump oil pan? My friend says that the flywheel from the dump truck bolt holes in the rear of the crankshaft is supposed to be different than what is required for the 4wd auto flexplate. What's up with this?

I have heard that the crank snout is much larger on the big truck engines and the front accessories will not bolt up either. Are you sure it's not a 429? What year dump truck is it? What size dump truck?
