Shifting a monster to the drivers side?
http://www.clubchopper.com/photopost.../first_fit.jpg Thanks Tim. You have any interest in having a phone conversation to educate me a bit on these big blocks. I am helping out an old friend with this car he is attempting to build.
Carl in Riverview 813-643-9111 or I could call you? |
Looking for more information
Any reason why it would go on the passenger side and not the drivers? Educate me please!

Our CMC car was built 93/94,frame was set up for tubular uppers and lowers front and back with clearance for belly exhaust, 2600 lbs.
460 .030 over forged pistons new beam rods arp 2000 bolts balanced and blueprinted Aluminum heads ported and polished Lunati flat tappet .235 @.050, .560/.560 Edelbrock RPM Dan Davinci 1000 cfm dbl pmp Holley Mallory Unilite aluminum water pump Tubular Automotive custom racing headers Stainless Specialties mufflers Aluminum flywheel Clutch pressure plate balanced with flywheel Tremec TKO 5 speed Strange aluminum center section 9" with 3:73 gear 31 spline moser axle,Traction-Loc posi set up tight Coilovers all around and car has been scaled 12" Wilwoods dual masters with balance beam Have road raced the car and a little street/drag race when the need arises. This car could be driven year round with top and windows in but do not. Car just sitting still pushes the right buttons as you all know.The very first magazine article I read about the 427 Cobra back in the 60's have lusted over these beasts ever since. |
429
I am running a 429 originally from a 71 T-Bird. The engine was rebuilt with high compression TRW pistons, Edelbrock dual plane intake, mild cam for rpm range of 1500-5000 rpm. I don't have any dyno or hp info on the setup. It has great low end and midrange, great for street cruising. Would love to try a set of the late aluminum SVO heads, intake and SVO cam for the 460 for more top end power.

Was the 545 built for topend power or off idle grunt? What is it like driving around,and have a lot more questions. Have been thinking about pulling aluminum topend off the 460 and setting up for big solid roller cam getting into the 650 hp range. Mike Ross |
Have the 460 as well, pulls like a 16 yo school girl..

I have a 1970 460 that has been modified by New Generation Engines of Fonthill Ontario Canada. The unit produces 740 HP/ 680 foot pounds of TQ at 6000 rpm. Lots of grunt as the torque starts to kick in at 1400 and pulls strong to 4500. Then the RPM takes over to 6000. The carb is a Holley 4150 HP Double pumper (No choke) flowing at 740 cfm. It works great! That is if ya don't run out of road.

429 SCJ-RA-Drag Pak
Hello All : Dan here, been a member for quite some time running a 71 Mach 1
429CJ-RA 4-speed in original Grabber Blue. Documented 1 of 2 known left to exist according to the 429 Mach 1 Registry with factory A/C. Recently added a new member to the family in the form of a Candy Red 70 Cobra. Numbers matching front to rear "barn find" with the real deal 429SCJ w/ram air - 4 speed - Drag Package. Yup the original "W" code 4.30 locker is still in place. I'm 50% done on a concour rotisserie OE restoration - but times being what they are I'm considering letting it go. Wishing everyone a fine day & hope to visit again soon. |
I'm Sporting the best engine ever made...... THE 460 of Course!

A 460 in a F5.... runs great.

Our 460 powered car has been keeping us happy for 21 yrs. now. Over the years have tweaked the suspension to road race, stepped up the performance to near 530hp. Except for a racing seat and stickier rubber the car is a pure thrill ride. The best hot rod we have ever owned bar none.
