Hi I'm Rick from Firebaugh California. I have a 1975 ford f150 that I'm thinking about putting in a 460 from a 1978 Ford Chateau Rv. The guy selling it is asking $200 with the tranny and engine complete. It's been sitting for awhile and has rat crap on top. Not to familiar with the 460. What will I need to do the swap and what upgrades should I do to engine while it's out... Thank you!

Take the motor mounts and frame perch's if you get it. They may or may not work on you truck but, you can check when you get a chance. Get an early 1971 or late fuel injected straight up timing set. They make adapter motor mounts for the conversion also from 351M to 460 but, you likely had a 302 360 or 390 in 1975. If the engine does not have many mines and the antifreeze was maintained you likely will not need to do much to it.

Welcome aboard.
