FE-460
I am thinking of doing a 460 swap into a 1970 f350. It has an fe 360 bb and a 4 speed in it right now. If I find a doner truck, what parts would I need (I would be using the tranny that comes with the 460). Would I need the motor mounts? tranny mount? what else? How about using a 1973-79 doner. are there any changes in the frame and such?
All of these parts would be coming from a local Pull a part junkyard.
thanks.

The thing to keep in mind are 2wd and 4wd perches are different.
Although companies like LMC offer aftermarket engine swap perches to makes easier.
Transmission mount would be the same, just will need to be either mounted forward or rearward from where it sits currently. There are two sets of factory holes, but you may have to drill new ones.
And then new exhaust etc.
