Yes, My Brother-in-Law has a 460 in a '67 Coupe. I haven't seen it yet but he tells me its in there and running with no issues. Gotta be a tight fit.

Ouch, please remove the cap lock next time you post.

That being said, here is a pic of a 460 in a '68 coupe that I was interested in buying. It is tight, but as you see it will fit.

Here's a link to a guy in KY that did it, first a 460, then to a 429:

Met him in person, nice guy I'm sure he'd answer any questions if you PM him.
