hello everyone
im gathring parts for my next project think a 60s falcon or fairlane or early 80s thunderbird
as for partsi got a 9 inch rear end i have had for awhile and i picked up a 5 speed M5R2 and a 4.9 straight 6 for 100$ so i figured i couldnt go wrong there i got lot of spare parts to
i went with the 6 cuz i figured would be an easy swap into a car with a smaller straight 6 maybe turbo this one
but as i was looking i found 2 460s for 100$ a piece so would have lots of parts to makea good engine but i have a few concerns
would this tranny bolt up to a 460 fisrt of all and would they go well in one of those cars ???
