I recently came across a complete 460 motor off a mobile home for $350. The guy said it had 48k miles and worked when it was pulled about 8 months ago. He said he even started it a couple months ago and it threw fire out of the exhaust manifolds. So I bought it...
The casting number on the block is D9TE-AB, which means it is a 79 or up block. I called a guy that rebuilds these motors to ask about swapping it for my 302 and he said it wouldn't work in my Mustang because it is externally balanced. I would think you just get the correct flywheel and balancer and it should work, correct?
Thanks,
