A big block Ford can be put into a Falcon, but it is neither cheap nor easy. The Falcon is a unibody car, so no real frame structure to deal with. To do it right, you would have to change the front to a Mustang II type suspension and add at least a 6 point cage plus some down tubes from a cowl hoop to the front of the frame. Also a bit or reinforcement is in order on the front subframe rails. I've done a couple Falcons, Mustangs this way. When you are done, these mods along with some frame ties and a good stout 9" rear end with the proper rear suspension and you will have a genuine street monster!!! Bring it on over to my place, got everything you need, even a couple of extra 460's!!!!!
