And, 460s have good torque, but they get pretty bad fuel mileage.  Parts and gas are
definitely more affordable for the 351.  

Keeping my '87 460 Crew cab together has been easy, up until I had to put a $1.2K
crank kit in it this last fall.....no idea why, suddenly it had no oil pressure at
speed and the #8 journal was so loose it was unmeasuable.  No abuse (that I know
of), just a lot of sitting around while it was being painted.
