You people wanting 5.0 coyotes,6.2s and everything else under the sun,I just want a 99-03 with a 460.
I talked to a guy on fb that did it,he said it was extremely easy to swap and they even sell the mounts for it,so there isn't much fab work. He went with a carb'd 460.

This is like a toy store though,this section is more about wants than needs lol. If you're swapping from one era of motor to another you better have something else to dd anyways,that's a lot of time and work to get things right!

But my whole intent to swap a motor in my 10th gen would be to gain power while maintaining the fuel efficiency of a newer engine.

Yeah and it'll be sweet too,but for me I already have a 5.4 and that's modern enough for a dd for me. Now I need a nice,loud,rumbling 460 to compliment the 5.4 lol. I'm considering starting a side business at the end of the summer,if I do that a new build is out of question for awhile but if it falls through around the end of summer I'm going to start looking for a truck with a bad motor or trans.

A 460 in a 10th gem sounds bad ***. I think if you're willing to go through with it I'd definitely be interested in watching you through that build. And I'd be anxious to hear the thing and all that. I personally think it would be bad ***, I wouldn't mind having one myself except it would need to be fuel injected.
