[updated:LAST EDITED ON 09-Jul-02 AT 03:29 PM (EST)]what i have heard is that they were put in mercurys, edsels, and lincolns. which is what MEL stands for. you probably knew that already. they're basically a big block version of the FE. the 462 was also in that family
go to yahoo and search "430 462 MEL" and the first one at the top of the page is a site all about the MEL. it has lots of good info on them

We used to have a MEL forum here way back but not much traffic.
Here's a couple links:
