yes
Yes, 390 headers can fit on 460 heads, but there may be some modifications required. The exhaust ports on 460 heads are generally larger than those on 390 heads, so you'll need to ensure a proper seal and alignment. Additionally, it's important to check for clearance issues with the chassis and other components in your setup. Always consult with a professional or refer to specific compatibility guides for your application.
No, the MEL is more closely related to the 390 Fe family.
No it won't. The only transmission that will fit a 390 is one off of 360 or 352. The 390 is a FE block it has a round shaped housing. The 460 Bellhousing fits the 429 351M and 400. All the Ford FE engines: 332, 352, 360, 361, 390, 391, 406, 427, 428 and 534 V-8's will fit the 390
No, the 428 is an FE series motor, the 460 is a 385 series. They are different engine families.
The Ford 460 heads with the casting number E5TE-TA can interchange with other heads from the Ford 460 engine family, specifically the earlier D3VE and D4VE heads. Additionally, some aftermarket heads designed for the 460 engine may also fit, but it's crucial to ensure compatibility regarding bolt patterns and chamber sizes. Always verify specific details like port shape and size when considering interchangeability.
you have 68cc bigblock heads , they will fit a 429CJ / And / 460 I also have a pair of those and a paire of D3VE-A2A off of a 1969 torino . I would hold on to them there the better of the heads.
Gose counterclockwise on 302-360-390 and 460.
yea a 390 will fit i got a 390 in my 79 they run good as hell to
NO
460 long block comes with heads... short block does not
The 1978 thunderbird had a 460 as one of its optional engines so yes it can fit
Depends on what you are using it for. I have three 460's and when coupled with a C6 trans, produce great tourque but get worse gas mileage. In a truck a 460 is the way to go. 78_ford_dude
