my 83 393 W went 7.50's at 101 mph in the 1/8 th, off the trailer, first pass, with alot left in it. Still have the 7.5 rear and needs a tranny and a posi and a good carb. I babied it out of the hole. So there are some hard numbers for you to ponder. Your 460 mustang will be so unbalanced (i.e. nose heavy), all of the weight will be over your front tires, not necessary the best thing, and it will handle like a pig.
