A stock smog-era 460 barely puts out 200hp 
Not too difficult to get 500 easygoing HP from a 429/460. The hard part is getting decent headers in there... I had two of those engines in the "Big Bird" T-birds (one '72 and one '76) and you could barely get your fingers between the upper control arm and the stock exhaust manifold.

Let’s see.... 200hp, 13 sec 1/4 mile, no handling whatsoever, and it cost him more than a good port and exhaust/carb. NO THANKS.
Now when he finishes with the motor, and if it is capable of good times after that, I will give him props. Any hot rod is cool, even if they have to desecrate a rotary.
