Yah, I know. The physical diffecence is about 135lbs I believe b/w the 351 and 460.
I'm still researching and talking to different people. I'd love a 427, but they are too much money. Anyway, the 460 is a stroked 427, so I'm kinda there!
Cheers!

Actually I think the 427 is part of the old Ford FE 352/390/427/428 family. The 460 is a more recent big block of the Ford 429/460 family which more modern but maybe heavier.
This to the best of my knowledge, I have only worked with the small blocks. They are exceptionally compact and light and is what all the Factory Five cars are designed around.. can be bored and stoked to just over 400 inches.
