I think jegs or summit has a full kit for the swap. The 460 is heavier but is capable of a lot of power with out a lot of time money and work.

After all of the work, money and agrevation, you'll still get your ass handed to you by a stroked 351 plus the front weight bias will make it handle like a pickup truck with a snow plow hung on the front.
