    You are going to find issues in fitting it to your 460 in that it will need a quicktime bellhousing adapter (RM-9011)

    Yes to the enlargement of the firewall/transmission tunnel for clearance

    Instead of being part of the problem, be part of a successful solution.

    460 is one of the stock options for an E4OD. I have built and installed a couple of them. And I currently have three of them on site.

    Again, it is the clearances that are the issue, the quicktime adapter is slimmer than the stock unit, less work to install without getting out the cutting torch.

    The subject is an E4OD. The bell housing is part of the case, not replaceable.

    But the AODE references do trigger a thought. How well would an AODE hold up on the back of a 460/532, road car, towing a small camp trailer?
