the 429 will not fit in your falcon without some major modifications, the shock towers are to close for it to even fit in the engine compartment. it is possible to alter them to fit wider engines in your falcon but i do not know if a 385 series would fit even with these alterations, they are very large engines physically.

btw, its good to see another falcon owner here, you should check out tffn.net (the ford falcon news) the forum ther is the best falcon place on the web.
