you got it Arin
I'd also love to build me a T-Bucket with the biggest Motor I can get my hands on, then Supercharge it
Is a 460ci the biggest motor Ford offers? I know alot of people put Chevy Motors on their Buckets, but it's gotta be all Ford. :headbang:

It's 514 cubes as they will ever be, just that it started out as a 460, and converted to a piston that travels up/down more to get more space. (longer stroke)
Longer strokes give you the torque.

lilbossman, I am sure it is a very nice example of a Boss 429. But, what a waste of a machine. These cars were built to be driven,not stared at.You may as well get a copy of Playboy and look at the models 
cause you won't get a chance to drive there either. :bang: But, to each their own. I'll drive mine until I can't,then maybe I'll just sit and look at it.
