Title: 460 Engine (forwarded)
Post by: Wittsend on October 24, 2020, 11:47:28 AM

This must have been originally posted in the for sale section..., or elsewhere where there is no ability to reply. Thus why I am "forwarding" it to the forum:

I have a 460 engine (from a Lincoln 1970s) I want to find what points, condensor, and rotor fit into this distrubutor. How can I do this. I have the old parts but parts have no numbers."

You already know it is a 70's Lincoln (Ford/Mercury), 460 motor. Simply look that up on any vendor website. It only took me but a few seconds to go to Rock Auto and input; "Ford," "1972" (pre-electronic ignition year) "Thunderbird" (it also used the 460) and lastly "460" to get the information that you need. If that is a challenge here is a direct link.   https://www.rockauto.com/en/catalog/ford,1972,thunderbird,7.5l+460cid+v8,1139857,ignition (https://www.rockauto.com/en/catalog/ford,1972,thunderbird,7.5l+460cid+v8,1139857,ignition)
