:sounds like a winner, Chris has the right idea about the front end, the stock shock towers will never let you get that 460 in there. You might also want to consider fiberglass fenders and hood. drop some weight that way.
Seen one at the strip only with a 454 Chevy in it. Ran in the high nines, he said that traction was his biggest problem. Would like to hear more about your engine specs, if you're willing to share them.

After i sold my 71 Mach 1 i still have my racing engine(600+++ bhp),
: transmision(C6 with 3000 stall spead) and 9" reartrans with detroit
: lockers.

: My question is have annyone tryed to put a 460 in a Maverick before and
: what do i have to change/rebuild to get it in?

: The car will mainly be used for dragracing in super street class.
