u will need the perches and motor mounts from a dentside with the 460 init. they are unique to them. they will bolt right up. I used heddman headers on my swap and they fit good. $200 from jegs. No rubbing on the chassis like some other ones ive seen

1973/79 F100/350 2WD's came with 460's.

You will need the following:

D3TZ-6028-A Right & D3TZ-6029-A left perches (aka stands, towers, supports)

D3TZ-6030-A Right & D3TZ-6031-A Left brackets. These bolt to the block, the rubber insulators bolt to these.

2) D3TZ-6038-A Rubber Insulators. Right/Left is the same.

If you have a C6, you will need one from a 460, the FE C6 will not work with a 460 engine.

If you have a C6, you will also need the '73/79 rear engine mount bracket = D3TZ-6A023-A (sometimes refered to as a crossmember-it bolts on) and rubber insulator = D3TZ-6068-A.

1975/91 Econoline 460 engine mounting parts will NOT work in F100/350's.

The brackets that bolt to the block, are they the same on pickups and cars?

If you have a top loader(4 spd), you can Swap Bellhousing from a junk yard and 3rd party mounts are 129.99 on a popular site.

I have the frame stands, trans mount (C-6) and insulators for a 1978 ford truck, I'm using a lincoln 460 engine with it's original motor mount brackets. I need to know if D3TZ 6030 A are truck only pieces or does the lincoln 460 already have the correct block brackets? Thanks, Dave
