so i was talking to my brother in law and he got a hold of a carbed 460 and out of a 1980 f250 he is getting a 4 speed manual,

he has a 1980 f100 with a 5.0, and he wants to put the 460 into the f100, he has been working on fords all his life so he pretty much knows what to do, but he was wondering if the bellhousing is the same for the 300 and the 302 as it is for the 460, and what all would he need to do this swap?

 

No, The SBF and BBF use different bell housings.

-Enjoy
fh : )_~

 

oh ok thats what i thought, he is definately going all the way with this truck though, im interested to see what happens at the end haha

 

I think you will also need the frame perches from the 460 truck

 

yeppers...

 

yeah i know he got that, he got a 460 with really low miles, then he just told me he got a parts truck with a high mileage 460 and manual tranny, hes going to sell off the bed and junk the rest

 

you aughta post the bed on here in the classifieds i know many people would want it if its close enough to them.

 

i will definately mention that to my brother in law that seems like a very good idea tho thanks
