Videos like these make me want to resurrect my '86 460ci F250 4x4...gas was over $4 a gallon when the water pump went out, so it was either spend the money and time to fix a truck that got like 8 mpg and leaked oil like crazy from seemingly everywhere, especially the rear main seal, or get something a little more economical. I was putting a quart in on every fillup, which is really saying something since I was filling it up all the time. I do miss that power and the sound of the true dual exhaust with 3" pipe and 24" glasspacks...It rumbled the ground enough to set off car alarms as I drove by them, lol. That engine is a monster, and sounds like one. I've also got to admit it was kind of fun to see the expression on the faces of young guys working at the parts store, when they asked engine size and I told them 7.5l 460...some of them get wide eyed and say something like, "Whoa, really?!" lol, always cracked me up.

Tough old 460. I've had 4 of them. Never failed me. My fuel injected '95 got 14 on highway. This older 460 did well, but by the looks of it, the tires were shot. Diesel looked well maintained. They all went over 300k miles with minimum maintenance. Better than the V10 that replaced it for sure.

the 460 thats in that truck, if its EFI, has from factory roughly 245 horsepower and 400 pound-feet of torque. the 7.3 power stroke (im guessing based on the badging) has 225-230 horse power (at 3k rpm) and 450 ftlbs of torque, so they are actually quite comparable, granted with a tune, and some other motor upgrades the powerstroke will outperform the 460, but stock for stock they are quite comparable.

[@StackBundle]

my uncle's service truck has the 460 with 335k miles and that's 335k miles of hauling a 14k lb truck. the 7.3 is definitely the more reliable engine but the 460 is still great.

[@StackBundle]

+runeshark22 you buy a diesel for reliability and because they produce higher torque at lower rpm.

[@runeshark22]

SRT Viper 51 well the reliability comes with a cost. you need parts, you're gonna pay. the trucks cost more up front, the fuel costs more, everything about them is more expensive to own. And I'm not hauling a bulldozer 1200 miles a couple times a week, I don't need that kind of torque. I'm pulling a race car to a drag strip or pullng firewood, stuff that I never need to max out the GCWR on a big diesel, I'm perfectly content with a ballsy gas engine for my uses.

[@rickresendiz1871]

+runeshark22 diesel cost less than gas. If you're not towing, you don't need diesel. Stick with a gasser since you don't tow. But don't compare the two. Nobody believes gasses are more reliable. They hit higher Temps. The also guzzle up fuel in order to match what a diesel can produce. The drop in MPGs on a diesel while towing isn't nearly as much as a gasser would drop.

When it comes to the early 7.3s and 460s it really just depends on which one you like more. Getting bad MPG in the 460 but not having to worry about costly maintenance or getting better MPG in the 7.3 and paying for the maintenance. personally I'm a diesel guy because I own a transporting business and I like the MPG and reliability. BUT for a straight up round town work/play truck. I'd go 460. Easier to work on/maintain. Cheaper too.

My motorhome a 1990 Ford Fleetwood Flair 30 foot. The best RV I have ever owner. The 460 motor fires up like a charm every time even when I’m about ready to run out of gas. Very quiet. Unlike his mine is fuel injected so from inside the RV you can’t really hear it running. They have made a lot of improvement on the 460 over the last several years. It’s a workhorse. You wouldn’t believe the shear weight these motors can pull without even a single complaint. No can’t complain. Only thing that hasn’t changed??? Average gas mileage is about 7.5 miles per gallon. It costs about a $1 every time I fire it up. They can use a lot of oil, so you really have to keep your eyes on it. Otherwise this motor will run with the wind on anything you give it, and keeps on ticking. I love my Ford 460 motor.

This would be more interesting if both trucks had the same tires, the same weight in back and the same driver (I know that can't happen, but it's likely the biggest factor.), then it would be closer to showing which engine is better at pulling. It looks to me like the diesel has more street oriented tires, and the 460 powered truck had more aggressive tires, that's why it looked like something was going to snap on the 460 powered truck, it was getting more traction.

the only thing this proves is one guys truck has better tires than the other. To do the test right you would need to put an identical load in the back of each truck so the rear ends were both weighted down the same, then you would have to have the same tires on both trucks, lastly both trucks would have to have the same drive line whether it be two wheel drive or four wheel drive, both trucks would have to be on the same consistent surface. Then and only then can you accurately tell which would win in a tug of war.

I should hope so . Its a giant gasoline motor . If it doesn't then its a complete failure of design . That being said , do you know the stock horsepower and torque specs for those two motors ?

[@christopherbradley5575]

This was all about traction. power had nothing to do with it.

[@811brian]

More about who hits their brakes first. In the mud, then we'll talk.

[@rustynail3159]

Christopher Bradley Yes traction and gearing but the 7.3 I would say has more torque.

[@redn3kforreal831]

Christopher Bradley umm actually if both trucks have traction it depends on weight and the power so ya it does have a lot to do with the engine

[@That-Guy.]

GUTZ-OF- GODZ Traction... If one is spinning there's no grip being caught by the 7.3 therefore tractions plays a huge roll. If it was the other way around the 460 would've lost.Its 90% traction.

[@redn3kforreal831]

Rare Vibezzz I never said it didn't i said IF both trucks had traction I was saying both trucks had traction and u r right yes traction does play a high roll in this and the 460 has more traction cuz a 460 is a towing engine

[@adamsheffey5701]

I've had 3 powerstrokes and one barley had 100k miles and neither of the 3 will hold a candle to the Cummins I bought

[@irmalorenzo6954]

[@lesliechung79]

I like how there oil stains throughout the entire driveway 🤩

[@Smokey298]

2:20 unhappy axle

[@az1235208]

they had the 7.3 in 2wd at first

[@DOITLATERGAMES]

Both were in 2wd the whole time the 7.3 had a problem with one of the front hubs and the 460 had the ttb front suspension and had a sheared pin in the diff so neither had reliable 4x4 so they agreed to keep it in 2

[@exploringtheoutdoors9476]

Hey as far as we know that 460 could have that tool box full of heavy tools helping it get more traction to the grown or better tires also does that 7.3 have a turbo or no

[@newbedford6991]

I had an 87/88 f350 with the 460 and 5 spd w od and that thing would go up a mountain in first gear and although it had a big grain body dump it would float down the highway at a 100 mph with ease like a caddy or town car and it felt like you were only going 55 it was so smooth and it had to stop at every gas station you saw, I was worried cuz when I bought it the owner was totally honest that it had 350k on the odometer, I beat the hell outta that truck for about 4 or 5 years using it to haul huge, heavy loads of scrap i beams and never had a minute of trouble from it, sold it it to another contractor that also beat the hell out of it for the next cpl yrs and after not seeing it around town for a cpl months I bumped into the guy and asked if it finally died and he said he'll no, that thing was a beast and ran like a top but some moron that worked for him somehow caught the engine compartment on fire trying to dump gas into the intake after letting it run outta gas, apparently he didn't follow the rule of stopping at every gas station it saw, I learned quick that pulling in the gas station and telling the attendant, ya give me 20 bucks worth of the cheap stuff was literally a complete waste of time, I owned it when Katrina knocked out the gas plants down south and gas was over 4 bucks a gallon, 20 bucks would literally get you to the next gas station if you were lucky and going downhill with a strong wind behind ya, lol. One of the best, toughest trucks I ever owned and belive me I was not kind to it ever a day in its life and I think I paid 3 grand for it and when I sold it I got 2500 for it cash after 4 or 5 yrs of faithful, trouble free daily duty, I was sad when I heard it burned up enuff that he junked it, it would probably still be running today cuz the guy that sold it to me gave me a xerox copy of a magazine article of a guy down south with the identical truck with a million miles on the original block, granted it was owned by a Ford mechanic but it made me feel good enuff to part with my 3 grand for a vehicle with over a quarter million miles on it which I would never do otherwise but it seems those cheap beaters are always the best buys that never let u down, no reason to use first gear, not even fully loaded and starting off on a steep hill, 2nd gear was strong as you would ever need, first gear was just overkill

[@markrode7331]

Another day in Mississippi 😂. Awesome

[@mdss4310]

Anyone notice the fuckin chevy sitting in the yard lol

[@GordonIvey]

+mds s best truck there.

[@mdss4310]

gordon ivey yea the broken one is the best....

[@jacobboyette4925]

+mds s OHHHHHHHH!!!!!!

[@NorthernBackWoodsman]

Roasted

[@blackriflex39]

thats the thing i hate most aboiut a chevy is weedeating around it

[@AdmiralKakarot]

pretty much evenly matched. although the 460 would last longer over the 7.3

[@mrjaylesmeister]

Chris Martin They are essentially the same truck. Cabs, frames, axles, springs, all the same. Box and front clips just shaped a little different. The 460 has a 2 liter advantage in displacement and therefore is probably slightly heavier. 460's get terrible mileage but make gobs of power.

[@AdmiralKakarot]

jay lesmeister well when it comes to big blocks, you're not looking for fuel economy, you're looking for power. my old 351w put out about 480hp and got about 10mpg. granted it was a small block, the 3 speed auto and the 4brl carb didnt help with the gas mileage.

[@mrjaylesmeister]

My 460 gets 7 mpg stock.

[@southernboy7369]

Chris Martin no it wouldnt

[@AdmiralKakarot]

SouthernBoy 73 actually yea it would and I will argue that until the day I die

[@HabeasJ]

Hooking up to a tow hitch. Fucking geniuses

[@anthonyjordan6371]

7.5 is my fav ford engine. It’s a fucking mass monster that has zero diesel headaches.

[@PatrickBaptist]

LOL dog told you who was boss LOL

[@franciscothegreat9173]

Patrick Baptist Patrick!

[@dakotadriggers8838]

7.5 vs 7.3

[@dannypederson4054]

Like them both there are pickups to this day will impress alot of people in there day Chevy or dodge couldnt touch them in my opinion they still cant youll be surprised what they can do even on a bad day

[@TheShanesousley]

I'll give you Chevy. Detroit diesels were built solely for fuel economy. I owned on and it pulled okay but I certainly get better mileage than a Ford Or Dodge diesel. Now the Cummins I doubt would fall short to an international stock. As far as gas engines the 460 has a name for a reason.

[@dcknowledgeandentertainment]

I have a 1997 35.5 ft long class A motorhome with the 460 in it.. had a newer dodge truck try to screw with me one night he went to pass me thinking he was gonna blow right by me and then I was able to stay right with him lol. This big motorhome has more than enough power to make it up mountain passes without slowing down and can defiantly pull some weight!!! Like the 5.4 omg that thing can pull too!!

[@jrs89lxzamora88]

Yeah that Chevy sitting in the yard is not qualified for this. the big boys are playing

[@chrismedders7739]

That’s right...the big BOYS are playing in their fords...Chevy’s are for MEN and made for work so I guess it don’t qualify

[@mikewolfskhal8782]

chris medders Chevy is the absolute worst been working on all of the big 3 for 40 years I’ve seen plenty of each but GM is the worst of the 3 no contest

[@kenb.4071]

Poor trucks have to have shitty owners

[@DOITLATERGAMES]

Both of the trucks were somewhat even they both had about the same size tires 265s and 275s they were both in 2wd 460 had tcase problems and the 7.3 had hub problems both had a good amount of weight up front bumper and motor both standard 4 and 5 spd 460 had a lower gear then the 7.3 did if i remember right we mightve seen a different outcome had they been in 4wd btw this was my brother and my dad i recorded the video

[@DOITLATERGAMES]

+Daniel Fitzgerald it's an idi

[@jegr3398]

I used to have a 96 F250 7.3, now I have an 89 F350 460

[@DeeOGee-bq3pu]

Well that proves absolutely nothing. Good job

[@glumpy10]

Only thing these truck pulls prove is what morons the owners are to abuse their machinery like that. Want to win every time? Put a half ton of weight over the back wheels and drop the air pressure a bit and you'll beat anyone that's empty every time regardless or power, tyres or anything else.

[@flyinsushi8144]

Oil Burner your abviously not a truck guy torque matters almost as much as weight in truck pulls

[@flyinsushi8144]

and can get that weight and power down without good tires can you?

[@brandynwood5872]

because these guys were clearly in a professional competition betting for money

[@Undertaker_Bass_Ride]

Oil Burner Your exactly right, torque and power doesn't matter as long as you have more weight and better traction, because if you tried to face someone that had no weight in the bed, they're just going to spin while your pulling them everywhere, Think about it "Flyin Sushi"

[@levijustesen3943]

Try watching a semi no matter the weight you can pull anything for instance a pickup vs semi without the trailer losses but with the trailer wins every time traction +weight +power get it right

[@dundonrl]

what's the wheel base of your 99, and what type of tires? traction is the major limiting factor in a tow competition like that (and who breaks parts first)

[@DavidFreakinFlorez]

this now made me consider the 460 over the 7.3l

[@ethanhassell4181]

Until you look as gas Milage

[@hudsoncollins5338]

That is an older 7.3 that came with no turbo

[@kamronwelsch9309]

No The one on the left is a 7.3 powerstroke 94.5-97 which means it had a turbo

[@BonnevilleNut]

Yeeyee Banshee is correct. Onlt tge old IDI 7.3's were available without a turbo.. 1993 and prior was IDI, after was PSD

[@mm88deatmatch]

This is how to break your truck

[@caseygilbert902]

Can't beat a 460. I took one out of a 95 f250 and put it in my 67 galaxie 500 it's a beast. I also bored it 30 over and stroked it to a 8.5l I a 521 cubic inch now.

[@jamesmoore716]

teach me how

[@motormouth2472]

Some guy around my area has a 90's F350 with the 460 in it. He has to be running a straight pipe because the thing is fucking loud. I can hear him cruising along for miles
