Those 460's were great engines, have one with a ZF 5 speed, its a workhorse. I really like the low end grunt those have. Drove a 2012 gas F350 with a 6.0 or 6.2..? Did a good job towing as well. Buts it was a screamer. Are the new 7.3 the same as the old or power at high rpm?


For those without thumbs, it's s Garden fookin Island, not Hawaii
