460 Lifter bore Blue Prints

was just wondering if anyone might have centerline locations ( possibly X and Y cordinates) for the lifter bores in relation to the dowels or bore centerline . I know (correct me ifi'm wrong) they are spaced 2.075" C to C on a 4.90" bore spacing . I am fixing to bush lifter bores , the bottom of the bore is worn excessively and i'm worried about pilot/reamer getting off track. I have two diffrent ideas on fixtures, and the best one needs these cordinates for me to make them. I cant get a block into my mill to probe these locations , was just wondering if anyone might have blue prints. the BHJ stuff is just outa my reach right now.

thanks for any help

We have that Prosys software here at the shop and I think it might have the block blue prints for the 460, I'll check.

is this what you are looking for? if you need more dims i have a set of blueprints

sorry here is the other side and angle for the lifter bores

Holy crap, you need to scan those to a pdf file!

I dont care what nobody says , you're a good man, LOL ! that is exactly what i was looking for. Just one question , trying to decode the 3rd blueprint , is the top of the lifter bore tilted in toward the head 4 deg's ?

I'd love to have those to make a 3D model in the computer!

Do you have the dwg's with dim for the front?

Looks to be 3 to 4 degs of tilt toward the head.

A 3D model would be Very Nice!

Off topic : Jones, what 3D software package you running? I'm using Pro/Engineering WF4.

Send them to me! I have a wide format (36") scanner!

Get them scanned in for real and make a stick post !!! with an attachment.

Who ever does a CAD 3D post that up to.

PLEASE

I have to do all my 3D stuff old school, all I have is Autodesk 2007. I just play around.

ok guys. the set of blueprints i have are complete showing everything. i have no problem copying and sending them out. just don't want to lose sight of them. very handy to have.

Have them scanned in and Email them !!! Don't Hard Copy !!!!

Those are the same prints as the ones in the Prosys data.

What is this Prosys you speak of?

Prosys is a software program that's put out by A.E.R.A. which has lots of engine rebuilding data, sizes, specs etc. It's sort of handy sometimes and when I was looking around and checking it out I found those prints. I think they also have them for the Ford small block engines too.

You got to do better than that! I have access to one that will handle 48"!

lol I don't care who does it, but it would be killer to have a copy of it!

Same here!

found a big enough scanner. should have something by the the first of the week.

It pays to live in "FORD-LAND!!

Here we are in a battle of "My scanner is bigger that your scanner!!" lol

If possible I would like to have a copy myself.
