94 Gt Tubular Front End


Hello, i've got a 94 Gt and i was wondering to gather some information on tubular front k members. I see these kits on american muscle that come with everything, but everything is for a 302. I'm looking to put a built 460 in this car. Does anyone know a place that makes tubular kits for a 460?

302 K-member works. You will need specific engine mounts for the swap. You will also need a specific oil pan, headers, brackets, etc. for the swap. You will need to convert to manual brakes. You will need a transmission that will survive behind a 460 and you will probably have to slightly modify the transmission tunnel. Driveshaft and trans crossmember will need to be modified. If you plan on putting in a stock 460, this swap is more work than what its worth.

Yea, This car is going to be a full out drag car, no street use. so every little thing will be taken off. I was thinking of a c4 for the tranny, but i'm not sure if they make the bell housings for a c4 to fit a 460

Less weight, header clearance, steering geometry, etc.
