i have a 1985 ford thunderbird turbo coupe i want to put a 1970 460 i have. i got the engine swap oil pan, motor mounts and brake booster i need. i want to run cast iron exhaust manifolds instead of headers. which years will fit from what car or truck? i know headers will make more power, i am just looking for a reliable crusier. also which transmission would be better. i have
a good c-6 or a e4od with a stand alone contoller? the rearend is a 8.8 with 3.55 gears
