77/78 ford ltd/ mercury marquis 460

[ALMACK]

I have a '83 T-Bird bracket car with a '75 LTD 460 engine in it. All it has is an aluminum Performer intake and a cheapo Summit flat tappet cam. Still has the orginal 1975 piston rings.

Those engines are real low on compression ratio.

Tough engines for sure, but those exhaust ports are weak.

I would love to see someone build one of those 70's LTD and get it under the index.
