I have recently bought a 3/4 ton truck and it has a 429 thunderjet in it and I was just wondering what parts I can scavange off of other ford motors if I can. I was also wondering if I can create some kind of stroker motor using stuff like rods and pistons out of one and a differnt crank out of another stuff like that . not too farmilliar with bb ford so anything would be cool

Add the 460 crank and pistons and you will add at least 31 cubes.then about 6 cubes for every .030 over bore.
If the heads are D3's you can add D0VE's to bump the compression up.
That would be about all your going to get from factory parts that you find used.
