Re: Engines i have options
i think the 460 is going to be to big lol might be wrong but thats a big motor. Lots of people do the 302 swap. Thats what i want to do when my dad hands down the 86 to me.

Re: Engines i have options
If you think you can fit the 460 in there go for it, it would be something different. Otherwise I would say the 302.
