Ford 460 Efi Complete Conversion Kit on 2040-parts.com
Broomfield, Colorado, US
This listing is for a plug and play bolt on setup to swap a Ford 460
from carburetor to EFI (electronic fuel injection). The research for this
system was done using a 1979 Ford F-350, and has proven an amazing
addition. The EFI conversion in the pictured Monster truly made it come
to life. It starts smooth and easy no matter the temperature. It runs
great at all elevations and flawlessly in severe off road conditions.
The single greatest benefit was the fact it doubled the gas mileage
of the pictured truck. It also raised the torque, and the horsepower jumped
dramatically, not to mention emissions became a breeze. The reason that
this was all possible is due to over three years of research in learning
the EEC-IV computer that powers this system. By re-mapping the ECU/wiring harness we are able to eliminate all of the unnecessary
components such as EGR and all the vacuum sensors,
and thus over 100ft of wiring. The other beautiful aspect of the
conversion is the fact you won't even have to remove your engine to do
the conversion. The engine block can stay in the truck, you can even run
your original v-belt, or you can convert over to serpentine. If you are
capable of changing head gaskets and running a fuel line, this install is a breeze.
On a standard size truck, you can expect about 12-15 mpg in town and 14-19mpg highway. The truck in the pictures weighs over 2500 lbs more than stock, not to mention its turning 44's. Through it all, the gas mileage doubled in this monster. It is averaging 10-13 mpg in town and 13-16 mpg on the highway. One recent trip from Denver to Yellow Stone, climbing some long hills straight into 45-60+ mile wind, it still got 8-10 mpg pulling loaded trailer. As a comparison; that same trip with a stock '78 regular cab long bed with a 351m and 30" tires averaged 6-7mpg with the same wind. It runs incredibly stronger, smoother and cleaner than any of the 60's, 70's, and 80's Ford trucks.
What it takes to convert your 460 to Fuel Injection:
- Simply remove the heads and intake from your truck and bolt on our new/rebuilt heads and intake.
- Install the distributor and ignition module that is included with the kit.
- Hook up a fuel pump from your existing feed line to the included EFI fuel line.
- Run a fuel return line to the tank (easiest via the fill up tube)
- Remove your old ignition module.
- From there you will install the wiring harness (there are only 5 wires to hook up to your truck)
- Run the included throttle cable (you will use your existing pedal, make one cut and one weld to the pedal rod)
- Run either the EFI manifolds included with the kit, or use our exhaust adapters so you can retain your original manifolds or long tube headers ( These are CNC plasma cut adapters and will cost an addition $60 )
- Install an O2 sensor in the exhaust system.
What is included with the kit:
- A complete wiring harness and ECU that runs as a stand-alone unit. (Each unit is tested and actually driven in the pictured vehicle)
- A new/rebuilt set of heads with new springs, 3-angle valve job, seals, and locks.
- A new cam and set of lifters from Crane Cams that will run within the parameters of the ECU and make more horse, torque, and also improve the gas mileage.
- A professionally cleaned and painted intake and valve covers (the valve covers are aluminum and can be polished like the ones pictured)
- Fully cleaned and tested fuel rails, injectors, and all the sensors.
- A cleaned and tested distributor
- Exhaust manifolds, and intake tubes (air cleaner tubes).
- Fuel lines coming from manifold to frame rail.
- A new fuel pump with warranty.
- O2 sensor bung
The only other things you will need to buy
An air filter, a 4-wire O2 sensor, some fuel line, and tune up parts of your brand and choice (cap, rotor, plugs, wires, etc)
We can also provide a modified gas pedal for $40 extra

Record Breaker Roars Again
Thu, 30 Jan 2014WEDNESDAY 29th January will go down in history as the day Sir Malcolm Campbell’s record breaking 350hp Sunbeam was fired up and heard in public for the first time in over 50 years. The historic event followed a complete rebuild by the National Motor Museum’s workshop team. As the brainchild of Sunbeam’s chief engineer and racing team manager, Louis Coatalen, the car was constructed during 1919 and early 1920 and power came from an aero engine, a type used on naval seaplanes.
Bugatti Veyron L’Edition Centenaire – first photo
Sun, 26 Apr 2009Bugatti L'Edition Centenaire at Villa D'Este [ad#ad-1] We told you a couple of days ago about the latest in a long list of Bugatti Veyron special editions – The Bugatti Veyron L’Edition Centenaire. Well, all we could really show you then was a scan of the brochure for the car. After all, Bugatti wanted to keep the car secret prior to its showing at this weekend’s Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este in Cernobbio, situated rather prettily by Lake Como, and hadn’t issued any pictures.
New Nissan Navara NP300 pick-up arrives
Wed, 11 Jun 2014The glitzier new Nissan Navara pick-up (pictured) arrives Double cab pick-ups are an odd creation, but they make a practical – and tax-efficient – option for users who need both a car and a pick-up, so the arrival of the new 2015 Nissan Navara pick-up matters to many. Styling on the new Navara isn’t dramatically different to the current model, but the 2015 Navara does look a bit more glitzy with its new chrome grill, chrome mirrors, detail crease down the side, black B-pillars and some very non-utilitarian colour choices like Savannah Yellow. Inside, Nissan has moved the Navara up a notch or two in quality and ergonomics with a high-res colour display, aluminium trim (well, trim that looks aluminium), decent seats and a new steering wheel.
