Engine Plate Confusion
Hello, does anyone know if you can use the engine plate that goes between the engine and transmission from a 351m, on 1 460? The 460 has a manual transmission engine plate, and I can't get the starter to bolt up to it because the holes are in the wrong location, and I have a junk 351m motor i can get the plate off of.

the motor i have is out of a 71 lincoln I believe, but it was pulled out of a 79 f250 4x4. The 460 was attached to a four speed. Do you know any part numbers for a 71 460 with an automatic transmission?

You need to contact FTE member monsterbaby, the guru of all things 460 to find out which plate will work.
I'm not the one to ask about swaps, all I do is read and post what the Ford parts catalogs say.
NOTE: The plates listed in Post #2 are for manual transmissions.
EDIT: I JUST P/M'd MONSTERBABY...he will know.
