    Easiest way is a Mustang II suspension swap with a kit from Rod and Custom Motorsports

    The 460 will not clear the stock shock towers

    It's been done...
    From the look of this pic though, it is probably a pain to do it 'right'.
    You wouldn't know it from this pic, but the car itself is gorgeous.
