Thread: 460 Ford into 55 wagon

Tweet

Well Welcome aboard-I've looked at you pics and it sure seems you are pretty deep into this and other progects and not over your head in any area-

Like I posted-I did an MEL engine into my 55 back in early 60s (probably 61) and I set it back the gasser 10% rule which is actually much more than 10% because they measure from #1 spark plug to spindle-was crowded in front seat area--------

In 1970 I put a 1969 Lincoln 460 in my F250 pickup and many, many Ford engineers came to look at it at the drag races ( Racing top fuel-push truck) and Ford came out with the option in 1973---my truck was known among them as the Devil truck( so I been told by several since retired Ford engineers)

Good luck---looks like more sheet metal work than drivetrain


Apple Valley?near I 15? I went thru there on way to Bakersfield March Meet race last month
