What would it take?
What would it take to pump 500HP out of a 460? Right now I am just doing some research on dropping a 460 into my 96 f-150 and wondering what combo's you have or have seen?

Port the Heads, Keith Black 401 dome pistons ( 11-1 compression with 97cc heads ) a good intake eg- Torker 2 or Weiand stealth or Victor, a 850cfm or 950cfm carb, Ford racing cam M-6250-C460 595/621 lift, there are many engine combo's you can put together to make 500 horsepower with the stock 460 crank and conrods...which won't cost you a arm or a leg !
