NOT a Ford guy but!!!!

Yea its an EFI motor i have all of the wire harness and CPU,I will need alot of help, I think that I will change it to a carb engine just to make it easier , I will PM you if you don't minded when i get to that point of the resto. 1 more ? this 460 has external oil cooler is that normal? like i said I know nothing about Fords.

PM me all you want, I'll help a brother out!

The EFI motors have different heads that the carb ones. The intake ports are smaller, round and raised, same with the exhaust accept they are more square, so the only manifolds and intake that will work are the EFI ones. That said, you can take the EFI intake, which is a dual plane and on par with a Performer intake, plug the injector bungs and make/buy an adapter to put a carb on it and use EFI manifolds or see if some of the headers available will fit. Your 89 motor will have a D9 (1979) block, it is external balance. These blocks have deeper skirts and are good for stokers up to 545cid. No 460 came with a roller cam. EFI valve covers are different too.

I just got my 460 set in and should be firing it this weekend. A my mild build will net 425hp and about 500ft/lbs with ported factory Iron heads.
