Man, that old 460 is just crying for some headers and a bigger exhaust system! Would probably knock another second off those times with some long tubes and a 3" exhaust.

@@VeteranRevivals Well, no matter whether you go boosted or not, you'll need a good flowing exhaust. And, it shouldn't cost you 1500 for headers and some 3" rear axle dumps. That is what I did on my '64 F100 with the 460 in it.
