i am not going to adress the guy who started this post but everyone else. To be quite honest the guy probably doesnt even have the 454 he mentioned. They are getting rare as hen's teeth and if he does I doubt it was free. More likely he is a kid and a chevy lover who wanted to start a bunch of crap on a Ford site and he did. He is probably eating this up laughing with his adolescent friends. Lots of people put chevy motors in Ford products and go around with the chevy motor is best sign hanging around their necks. I always tell them if GM made a decent platform for a body they wouldn't have to do that. The money thing is not a viable argument. some one in here mentioned that it was cheaper to build a chevy 454 than a Ford 460. this used to be the case but not anymore. 460's are way more plentiful and with the advent of CNC machining the cost of after market stuff is about a toss up. There are alot more choices of parts for the chevy I'll give your that. But cost isn't an issue. I've run the numbers. the reason I think he is BS ing everyone is the way he quickly got his hair up on his back when folks started in on him. Any idiot would guess that this is a Ford site and would be less than receptive to an idea like this. Example would be lets all go to a chevy board and post about putting a "free"[img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_rolleyes.gif[/img] 460 into a Chevy platform. wouldn't that be a real sweet topic? [img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img] I am quite sure they would all throw a gasket.

I also would like to see some numbers on how it runs because I already have some numbers on how a BBF runs. [img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_tup.gif[/img]
