1969 f-250 390 to 460 swap

I have a 1969 f-250 camper special 4x2 and I would like to swap in a 460 with a c-4. Any ideas on what I will need for this swap. This site is great.

Find a late 70's 4x2 truck running a 460 and grab the engine towers that bolt to the frame. You will also need a C5 or C6 trans to go behind that motor, unless you buy a beefed one specific to the 385 series engine mounting pattern (I don't think you can find a factory C4 to bolt up).

Welcome aboard! --Mike
