Be careful with over heating
I just finished a project where we dropped a 460 into a 87 McLaren. If you are going with a fox body care you need to improve air flow through the radiator. I had a fit trying t0 figure out why it over heated so quickly. We eventually add a makeshift skirt under the car to direct the air better and she runs nice and cool now. Would also recommand using the Cobra Grill insert.

460 build-up
right now im not exactly sure on what im gonna drop the 460 in after its all said and done. im keepin my eye on my moms 68' stang. this is gonna be a long project because its gonna be expensive as all get up, plus im gonna be moveing around alot for a while. but i have something in mind for the 460, liiike a 557ci stroker kit plus many many extras. im gonna try to pump as much HP through this motor as humanly possible(running on pump gas and naturally asperated of course).
Dammit, another good ol boy gone. Condolence to the family. RIP Mike
