460/5.7L swap?


Ive got a 460/7.5L EFI motor out of a 95 F350 and i was wondering what exactly would i need to do to a foxbody to make it fit and if anyone has done this before or what kind of transmission i should go with because im assuming the stock tranny probably wont be the best idea to try and use. Basically im looking for any information/Recommendations on this.
-Thanks

Suggest searching here or 460 Ford Forum of even google for 460 fox body. Its been done MANY times and tons of info out there. Everyone has an opinion on a 460 swap but do you self a favor and consider the condition of your 460, your HP goals, and the cost and work to do the swap compared to a 302/351 first. A cheap or even a free 460 will not always equal a "cheap project" once everything is done and it is running reliably in the car, the engine itself is not the where the bulk of the expense and time is. A Fox body with a stock 95 460 (roughly 250HP /400TQ I believe) would not be impressive and get crappy MPG.
