I have ran and worked on the 460 engine since they first came out and i am a hard core lover of the 460 . I had one in a 88 F 350 4x4 dual rear wheel cab and chassis with a five speed . Never had a problem with the engine and when i sold the truck it had 287and change on the meter , Now i never run the truck any harder then it would run and i never hauled more then i could fit on the truck and trailer . I stayed up on maintenance and changed oil every 3-3500 miles i ran Castrol 10-40 in the winter months and 20w50 in the summer months . some weeks from this time of year till May the oil was getting changed twice a week due to the miles i was racking up running three states . Myonly complaint was the rest of the truck like computer , rear end , U/joints till i stopped buying NAPA joints and went to Spicer joints , on the rear end the problems there were due to the crush spacer collapsing and eating the ring and pinion and the hyd clutch master cylinder and slave cylinders . You were wise to carry a spare computer and the slave and master cylinder behind the seat at all times and a qt of brake fluid . while i was running the NAPA u/joints ya had to carry TWO of them . With the updated computer i never minded the fuel milage i was getting BUT there was some changes made to the timing gears as i did change to the ones for a 1970 gear set . Cam shaft is the same as first produced just cam timing was layed back with the gears . Should have kept it and rebuilt the whole truck But i had to have a Dodge . things i don't like about my Dodge , (1) No lock out ft. hubs (2) the heater . (3) Gear ratio , (4) fuel mileage .

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
