Why do people think the 460 is thirsty? I have a 302 and make 15 mpg normally, once I made 17 but I was only going 50 mph. Most people I talk to with 460's make 12 or 13 mpg - and at least they have the power to get out of their own way.

Ford 302 = 300 six with 2 more cylinders to use more fuel...

460 is a good engine, I've heard of a few with around 250,000 miles on them. You should be able to get a few more miles out of this one, for $600 I would take it!
