Ford F-150 Engine Upgrade - 460 Big-Block Power - Four Wheeler Magazine
There were some good components, like the Edelbrock intake manifold and MSD ignition, but a bent pushrod and missing lifter were indicators that the engine was on borrowed time. While Cleveland and Windsor motors enjoy a loyal following and good aftermarket support, the same cannot be said of the Midland motor. This led us to explore other engine options for our Ford. At the far end of the spectrum, we considered running a new Ford Racing Coyote crate engine. And with L&L Products offering every component you need to perform the swap, we can spend less time in the shop and more time on the trail. The engine L. A. Speed machined and assembled for us was built with off-the-shelf components from Summit Racing Equipment that offer more power and reliability than stock components while taking budget into consideration. While aftermarket fuel injection systems like Holley’s Terminator EFI are relatively simple to install, Holley’s Truck Avenger carb got the nod for price and performance with no compromises. Like all Truck Avengers, it uses square fuel bowls with side-hung floats and HVS annual boosters to minimize fuel sloshing and maximize throttle response. Source: www.fourwheeler.com
