I am removing thinking about removing my Anderson Ford Motorsports 351w (TFS heads, AFM Lightning roller cam, headers/full Bassani exhaust, Superchip and etc.) out of the Lightning.
I have performed many engine swaps with fabrication and am considering a 460 into my 1st Generation Lightning with about 500 streetable horsepower.
Some questions:
1. Is the E4OD transmission equipped with a removable bellhousing which will allow me to swap for a 460 bell housing to use my current transmission?
2. If the stock E4OD can work, will the stock E4OD converter require redrilling the 460 flex plate or require a custom one?
3. What motor mounts will work with a 460 in a 1994 L?
4. Will the E4OD crossmember and mount need modified?
5. Are there reasonably priced long tube swap headers available for the 460?
6. I will probably use a stand alone ignition and carbureter for cost and simplicity sake but, what else am I not considering in this endeavor?
Any advice is appreciated,
Don
