@@RacingRon47 An FE weighs 100 lbs less than a 460. I have had them on a scale. And have Blair Patrick build you an FE he can show you the power. He built a 400 ci one with iron heads and a Trick Flow intake that won vintage class against every thing including a 427 Chevy. It made 517 ft lbs and 597 hp with iron 64 352 ported heads. He had 528 and 610 hp on his dyno in TN, so it lost a few on the trip, lol. I have flowed and ported both and you would be quite surprised.

We found it pretty easy to get 500+ engine dyno horsepers from a relatively cheap, reliable, and street-able 460 with just a MSD, 10.5:1 or so pistons, solid flat lifter cam, springs, adjustable rockers, headers, single plane intake, 850 carb, and mild ported early iron closed chamber heads. Back in the 90;s, it could be done for about $2k for the junkyard core, machining, and parts. Made me wonder why the abundant and unloved 429 / 460 wasn't more popular, especially in NA trucks and fox bodies.
I'm GM, Mopar guy, like them all though. That said I forgot about the 460. My friends dad had a 69 marquis, 428, 429, can't remember exactly, what I do remember was being pinned in the back seat when his lead foot father drove. Holy moly that land yacht could scoot.
Oh yes, always a big block guy even though i've never really owned one.. When i was 7yrs old i remember me leaning fowards on the center console of my pop's 84 Bronco with the 351W n he floored it n i freaken hit the back seat so hard, felt like a jet..lol Finally let off on a sharp curve n i felt i could breath again..

That was a great old-school iron headed bunch of builds. You were pretty lucky to score that old pre 70s block with the overbored slugs in it, that's a wrecker find right there. From the days when 500 HP was a huge deal and not every driveway could brag about numbers like that. Would have been nice to see a comparison of the EFI 460 heads but I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that they're probably pigs and would be hard pressed to make any real power so I won't snivel too long and hard. Plus the hassle of digging some out of a wrecking yard and setting up the EFI just to have 1973 power levels. Yay. But yeah, that was a fun series of dyno tests from 'the other guys'.
I almost bought a Ford racing 460 aluminum engine years ago that was based from the 351w. When i decided i was gonna get the 460, Ford discontinued it and i settled on the 427 version instead.
Here comes one Chevy fan boy that has to piss moan about a ford content when you can watch ls small block big block Chevy content all day and twice on Sunday
Great stuff. I am building the same motor as the 400 hp variant for a 4x4 truck. I suspect you are spot on why the low end torque dropped off. It would have been interesting to stick with stock intake for comparison in that config.
The solid cam didn't make that much more power than the hydraulic but it was a big difference in cam timing. A 236/240 is a lot more livable for street driving than a 264/268. Maybe the head flow of the ported stock heads was the limiting factor?
I've found with mechanicals they don't lose much down low with the gain of smaller lifter lash vs piston movement in a hydraulic and should be judged more at the advertised .006 duration to compare in drivability.
I’d love to see you put a set of f3 heads on one, with a carb adapter to the stock intake. Then run a ported set for comparison. The numbers I’ve seen from ported fuelie heads flow almost what ported D0VE heads do.
just a suggestion, Richard, I'd like to see a comparison between running a gasoline type fuel, versus methanol (100%). I think there are some surprises to be found with simply a fuel change by itself.
My 460 is a 477, Trickflow290 heads, Lunati 642/642--- 278/286 adv solid roller, Forged 9.4 Racetech pistons , stock crank , h beam rods, Torke r2 intake, 2 3582 turbos. port matched and ARP studs top and bottom.

i'd hate to ruffle feathers, but i think some haven't noticed these series are basically, "let's use the boss' equipment and raid the supply closet" material. FE used to stand for "science name for iron" since they also were heavy as guilt :) nowadays you can pick up a roller 351W block, forged 302 slugs, and a $400 stroker crank and have a 392cid that'll give any 390 a run for its money--cheaper, lighter and there's junkyard EFI for it. ford should have done a lot more with the 390 to go up against the 396 in the mid 1960's. they already had a tripower 401 hp formula from 1961. But then Tasca wouldn't have the need to give us the 428 CJ. And of course too bad the 429 didn't become a performance engine until the end of the era--it moved Torinos down the quarter in 13 seconds, pretty stout for 1970. The Lima series would have battled the rat for dominence in the 1970's if only there'd been more CJ heads lying around for hot rodders, but the Rat had been out since 1965 so it had more parts at affordable prices.
