I know this isnt gonna sound right but your heads, intake and carb are the right size! If you had anything bigger it would be a waste. I wished I would have had smaller valves, a carb just like yours, and a vic jr intake instead of the VIC intake I had. I left way to much on the table when I was running/tuneing mine!!!!!! I ran 5.93 and then 5.92 back to back in 1/8 mile with a Dynamic C-4 and art carr 9 inch convertor. That sucker would stall nearly 5000 on foot brake! you have a much better combo than I did! C-6 is better, you dont have to much stall, your carb is right size,and your intake is right size. I started out small and my eyes got to big for my britches!

your car should be nearly the perfect combo! dont get all crazy and spend unecessary money...........just drive that awsome ride bro and have fun with it!!!

I'm outa here I get off at 12:00! laters all

Thx. Its just that the dizzy is pretty high and its pretty far forward in the engine bay so i need a big cowl to clear mostly that and it gives me room to expand in the future like a victor jr. intake when i need it.

460's came in LTD, Trucks, Vans, Lincolns, Crown Vic's all of the big cars in the early to mid 70's. Best part I like is they so resemble the same style as a 5.0 block just HUGE! nearly the same in every respect!.........
