Your budget and power needs are going to be limiting within the FE family. If you go with a 460 and want fuel injection I'm removing a complete and working FI from my 460 Cobra this month. It will all be available for sale if you want a complete kit/solution. Coming out of an SPF car.

Sadly, the FE's are expensive, even more than when we built my original 428FE back in 2002.
The problm is, with a 460 I'll need to sell the brand new FE products I have, steel bellhousing, flywheel and dual clutch, and possibly having to make a new taller, hood scoop.

I'm excited of the low end torque and the top end HP with the 460.

Please either post here or send me details, photo's and price of your 360.

Is the 385 series block stronger than the 428FE ?
Better all around engine ?

I know nothing about the 385, just learning.

Maybe a nutty question, but has Ford or aftermarket companys have a aluminum 460 block ?

What's the weight difference between the 428FE and the 460 ?
