    Big Block Techie stuff

    OK Aluminum or Iron? Port and polish?

    Cast or Forged Pistons? Cast or moly rings?

    Do I need to replace the stock crank? rods?

    Intakes. Dual-quad? Single? Air-Gap style?

    Custom headers. Have to be. Fox types wont fit the box!

    Carb. Holley? Edelbrock? Demon? Predator?

    Future Mods (Year or more)
    256cid single carb blower, and possibly plate nitrous.

    Useage
    Weekend streetfighter, and bi monthly 1/4 runs. Some crusin' and show 'n' shines (ie burnouts!)
    2008 Mercury Grand Marquis GS Bone Stock

    Forge it all

    aluminum heads will help shave the weight the 460 is adding to the car

    stroke it

    single non-airgap works find and is cheaper

    get ahold of the guy on cvn with the 460 box, maybe his guy can make a copy of his a lil cheaper than you can get some done for

    Holley will work for the amount of street driving you wanna do, but wont be as easy to setup right

            Whoa, your all over the map here. Building an engine for naturaly asperated is different than blown applications. If I were doing this. I would start out with basicly a stock running engine put it in a car and start running / racing it. Get all the install issues and such worked out first. A Fox swap oil pan should work. Up grade intake and stuff from swap meets.

              Yeah, my old 2bbl...that friggin motor would scream. Would have loved to have it with an intake, cam, and headers.

                Crank and rods should be fine if you're not spinning it too high
                Dual Quad intake, make sure it's got a streetable powerband though
                Holley cabs if you can manage to tune 2 of them, if not, Edlebrocks
