460 in a 73 Mach

z3beemer · 12-21-2005, 11:43 PM

Does anyone know if the shock towers need to be modified to put a 460 in a 73 Mach? If so what needs to be done to them? I believe these cars were available with a 429 so I'm thinking they do not need modified. Yes/No?

Thanks

Yes you can put a 460 in there. Some 71's came with 429s. I have seen a few 71-73s with 460s no modification is needed.
