Best I can figure the 460 in my truck came from a 1970 Lincoln, the previous owner installed the engine so I don't know what he had to go through to get it in but it does have a front sump pan and it fits but its very tight and changing the oil and filter make for a fairly big mess and my C6 transmission pan is a very tight fit but I was able to do a service on it, otherwise performance and drive quality is great.

The pan and the mounts/perches are my only questions at this point. I would like to use oem mounts/perches if at all possible, but a search of the local junk yards has not turned up much so far.

Cool, I will shoot you a pm.
Ya, no new suspension for me...I still have a 700 awhp Subaru to finish. The 460 was a budget stretch, but I was not sure how long the 352 anf cruise o matic were going to last.
