It originally had an FE motor and those are pretty bulky (more of the V diminsions). I hard the 460 is bigger (taller, longer, and weighs more) but it is actually narrower from strut tower to strut tower. Anyone know this for sure? __________________ Samhane 1968 Mustang Fastback Eleanor www.MaximumMustang.Com
