460 engines

Question: Sometime in the '90's Ford updated the fuel-injected 460 with better heads, etc. and it made significantly more power. Does anybody remember in what year they did this? thanks! Allan

Nope, but there's no intake for it.

In 1993 the intake valve head diameter was increased from 1.977" to 2.083".
