So I couldn't help my self I had to open up this 460 I got that I didn't need
Yes it is a DOVE-a casting
Let me know if anyone is interested in buying this thing in whole as much as I could use the parts I already have enough to build 2 motors here goes
Dooley jet boat pan, Windage tray, rear pick up, high volume pump
It does not look like a factory iron crank
It's a light gray color
Arias 8 pistons
I beam rods
Arp rod bolts
Svo rocker arms and studs
double spring valve springs
Manley push rod guides
C6 heads
I posted a pic of the cam number has some sort of iron cross stamped in it

Someone spent some money on this thing
I found out why it was pulled
Dropped a valve in cyl 1 and f'd up the head
The cyl walls look great but 1 has some slight scoring not real bad
The bottom end turns over like butter vary smooth.
Check out the pics let me know what you think

what do u want for oil pan, pick up and pump

Let me make sure I have main bolts I case some one wants the rest and I will pm you tomorrow

Kinda hard to tell from your pics but looks like it might be a cast, bead blasted OEM 460 crankshaft. If so, then it will have markings on the leading or trailing edge of the 3rd counterwieght from the snout, such as 2YA, or 2YABC.

Eagle SIR rods. By the way, the rods look bead blasted too. Probably a freshed or repaired rotating assembly. There's nothing wrong with that if it's done right.

Call Arias and ask for a single piston in that part number (if you can find a part number). If they will offer a single one you'll be in luck, but I doubt they will and the entire set is almost worthless without a new one (unless there is someone out there who needs a broken set so they can make a complete set themselves).

The heads look to be C8VEs

The rockers are generic POS or SVOs (again, I can't tell from the pictures).

Someone might offer a lot for that grenaded long block, not knwoing what they're looking at; I'll offer $50 without the Dooley stuff...you just never know the condition of a grendaded engine/what's good until it comes completely apart and is evaluated. You could take it completely apart and evaluate everything yourself and sell it piece by piece and probably get more than $50. But be careful what you're selling.

The Dooley stuff should be sellable for somewhere in the triple digits, depednding on completeness and overall condition.

The main bolts in that engine are a part of the Dooley pan/pickup/windage tray combo. They must be kept together as a set. Remove the allen bolts holding the windage tray in place and you will find the special main bolts that go with the Dooley tray.

You will be left with a D0VE-A block without main bolts. Not to worry because it is easy to get 429/460 main bolts since many people add ARP main studs or ARP bolts to their blocks.

LO

Yeah that's why I was going to look around I know about the Dooley studs that's why
I was going to look in my garage for some main bolts so I could sell the studs with the wind age complete.

Lo there really doesn't look like much damage to the block at all
It ran it just had a miss fire.the valve that dropped made its way out the exhaust because it was gone.
Yes the rockers are svo 1.73 ford
Like I said before the whole rotating assembly spins very nice and all cyl
Walls are nice except 1 has light scratches.

LO
Im now thinking that if everything checks out and all is good, i may build this block with all these parts and sell one of the current already checked and machined blocks i have.
what rods did you say those might be.
and most importantly would you run these parts in YOUR motor?

Thanks

Is the head repairable or do I need a new one.
If so do you have one?

thanks
