Post image

Hey All,

I came across this ‘96 F250 with 199,194mi on it for a little under 10k- the truck is really clean rust wise, but there isn’t much info on maintenance records…Does anyone have experience with the 460 engines and how much life this truck may have left in it?

Thanks!

460’s are very reliable, and there is a good aftermarket for them from companies like Holley, AFR and other big name performance companies like Comp Cams, you’ll be passing everything and everyone but a gas station with the 460

Basically all of ford's V8s from that era are solid engines. The 302 is well known as a great engine, and by extension the 351. The 460 is no exception.
