does anyone know the advantages or disadvantages to switching a 5.0 motor out of a fox body to a 460?

its too heavy, dont do it.
one of our techs did the swap and ran 8's, he sold it. he's 57

The guy that bought it met a telephone pole, then into a field.

The 460 is now in the tractor from the farmer that found him[:'(], pics were so horrible, we agreed to throw them away.
