Well, a good friends son has helped me out in my shop alot this year. I mentioned making a drag car with all the parts i got laying around and that excited him. Im also trying to get my kids involved into motorsports racing of somesort. Ideally we all come together in this build and take it racing as a family.

Hell. At this point in my project, those tail lights can be considered a 'middle of the road' expense.

Very true. I'm surprised someone hasn't tried to replicate them.

Not my latest purchase, but my latest completion.

Finally got the Mustang Body Shell for my RC car finished (well, finished to how I want it) and took the chassis from the Escort Cosworth from being 4-wheel drive to just rear-wheel.

You'd need to get Radio gear, battery and charger too but there you go!

Paint it however you like - I just went all black and missed off most of the stickers, I mean decals.

I had to modify the center exhaust hanger to go through the DSL. I think I can dig up some pics to help give an idea of how if you need it.

I bought somethin.......

It came with all the mounts for the accessories, belts, pulleys, alternator, a power steering pump, AC pump....

Allll the wiring harness.....

It even came with this!!!!

Full computer box to go with it!!
What y'all's looking at is a fully dressed 460 out of a 97 F-350 with approximately 150,000 miles on it!! Engine oil is clean, the antifreeze is still green, and under the oil fill cap is clean as well!! So no blown gaskets, no oil in the antifreeze or vice versa!! I've checked the casting numbers on the heads and the block, and they are correct, it's even got the double hump oil pan that's needed to drop it on a fox k-member!! I am planning on going thru it completely tho, aluminum heads, intake manifold, and water pump.. Gotta trim that weight down.. Big block power, here we come baby!!!!

Is there much difference between the newer 460’s and the old FE motors??

Lots!!!! I can bore and stroke this thing out to a 557 cubic inches if I had the $$ and they weigh a butt load less... Heads on the 429-460 big blocks breathe a lot better than the old FE series... Think Cleveland on steroids!!
