I had an '88 460 - check the exhaust manifolds for leaks.

Put a set of Timbrens in it as soon as you get it. If it was not used to plow then it may be ok. You can look at the front diff and see if it is cracked where the drivers side axles housing bolts to the pumpkin.

Thanks for that info. I'll check the front diff and the manifold before I spend any money.
