Well just when I thought I was out of the game something comes along and helps me get back in the deep end. Like getting my ankle broken by getting hit by a school bus. Soo on that note, Im fixing to make my a bad ass toy expedition. Im trying to find a Ford 460 block, anybody got any ideas?

Try Craiglist...I see rebuildable blocks on there all the time in my area.

Example:

i found the block. now i just gotta get it out to the machine shop with the crank to get bored 30 over and get the crankshaft balanced. Found some nice ford racing valve covers. Now I just have to find a bolt on supercharger tht fits. I got a hold of Hennessey Performance to see what they say. They rebuilt a 460 a few years ago and Im trying to find out what they did to it to get 800 horse out of it.

Once I get that done, here comes a 6in Fabtech lift and a 3 in body lift with some 38s, maybe 40s. Cant wait. Pics when its done.

Is Toledo in an AIM county? If so, what are you going to do about the emissions test?

 

[musicman126mrj]

as far as i know its not an AIM county. But in order to take the vehicle out of state it still has to be emissions tested. The local highway patrol station does emission testing as well as the State Department of Transportation.
