its possible, but as far as pratical, maybe not.
the fuel injected heads and intake are different from the earlier stuff, so you would have to change the heads, intake, exhaust and distributor to the fuel injected stuff. if you are doin that, you may as well just get a complete fuel injected 460 instead. you will also need the computer, wiring harness and a high pressure fuel pump to make it all work. then you will have to figure out the wiring harness and adapt it to your vehicle properly.
another alternative is to use one of the aftermarket fuel injetor kits on your 429 instead. like the Holley system or other comparable systems. a lot simplier in the long run but not cheap.
