    Before I'd spend money on a 500cid plus stroker kit, I'd be doing a 2 cylinder delete.

    Two cylinder delete? You can do that on a older motor? Wait, what??

    I'll get my differential ratio tomorrow, it is a 4x4. I've never paid to close attention to the ratio but probably do need to check it out. Thanks for all your input!

    Most 460 equipped trucks had 4.10s. Moving up to 3.55s would help and these were offered stock. I had a 95 4x4 F350 that had a 460, ZF5, with 3.55s and it would do 12-14 on the highway when it ran decent. Most of the time it got 8-10. I ripped out that garbage and put a 5.9 cummins in it. It then got 20-22 and is still going strong out in Oregon. I never should have sold that truck.
