I'm swapping a 460 into my 93 coupe. The car is going to be a weekend cruiser, but I plan on running at out local auto-x and HPDE events just for fun (not worried about being competitive). The 460 swap gets dicey when you start talking manual transmissions and it also gets very pricey. I'm tossing the idea of running a C6 with a manual valve body after someone mentioned it over at 460ford.com. I'm looking for anyone that runs a similar setup at the track or auto-x. Thanks
Go with a c-4, it'll fit the tunnel and will take the power of a 460 if built good. There are factory bellhousings out there for combo. They were used in the 70's behind 351m/400's.
I thought about a manual valvebody for my C3(not that I could find one) but figured it would be the same as just manually shifting it. NOt sure how well it'd hold up.
i run a 65 falcon with a 289 and the performance automatic reverse manual valvebody for my 65 c4 case. its awesome i love it. full lock up on every shift.
