Your Recipe for Ford 429 / 460 Performance !

New heads are just one component of the horsepower recipe . To make it complete , you ’ re going to need some more ingredients .
R-Series A460 Intake Manifold and Tunnel Ram
Intended for 500-plus cubic inch , high-RPM engines , A460 intake manifolds keep building power where other brand manifolds taper off . The single plane intake features a one-piece , spider-type design with high-flow , extended individual runners for significant power increases . The tunnel ram features replaceable top covers so you can mount either single or dual carbs , and includes bosses to plumb in a coolant crossover and thermostat .
Roller Rocker Arms
These excellent aluminum roller rockers feature heat-treated CNC-machined bodies , premium needle-bearing fulcrums , roller tips , and a machined relief for valve spring clearance . They slide onto all 7 / 16 " rocker studs and have a 1.73 ratio to increase valve lift . Sold in sets of 16 with polylocks .
Main Stud Girdle
Ford ’ s factory two-bolt main cap assembly is fine for mildly built 429 / 460 engines , but if you ’ re shooting for big power , you need this Main Stud Girdle . The girdle ties the main bearing caps and bulkheads together to sufficiently stiffen the lower-end of the block and provide proper crankshaft support . Each girdle is made from black oxide-coated tool steel , and includes ARP main cap bolts and a provision for an oil pump pickup tube hold down .
