I have a 460 out of a 1974 Mercury Marquis and I want to put it in a 1980 Ford F-250 4x4 that presently has a 351 mod in it. Will the engine go into the truck without major modifications and will the transmission (C6) hold up to the extra power. The 460 is about 3 inches longer than the 351 so will that cause clearance problems with the radiator? Has anyone done this type of swap and knows how many problems will crop up, such as exhaust fit, wiring problems, linkage problems etc. Is there any place to get this information?
