Hello, I’m new to the 460Ford. I visit other forums, but I’ve been told this was probably the best to help me with my current project. I will try to keep it short and simple. I have a ‘77F100 running a 302. I’ve did a little work to the 302 and it’s a pretty strong engine and I’ve decided to put it in a mustang and drop a 460 in the F100. I picked up a 460 w/transmission out of a ’76 Lincoln Continental about two weeks ago. He started the engine up and it runs fine, just needs a good cleaning up, rusty freeze plugs, and stuff like that. I want to dissemble and clean it up real good and paint the block, but I hate to dissemble a good running motor. I have a build in mind but I wanted some opinions on, and also any input on how difficult will this swap be?

Pre ’71 Timing Set (I was told that the ’76 has a retarded timing set up)
The truck isn’t used for racing or pulling. It’s just a weekend toy to keep me busy.
It has an electric ignition, so the electrical shouldn’t be a problem. I have a C6 to bolt up to it. I still have to find a drive shaft, and motor mounts for the frame, which I’m having a problem with. I thought I found a set in Advance Auto, but I was told that’s not what I need. Does anyone have a picture of the correct mounts?
