Re: 1961 lincoln engine

Re: 1961 lincoln engine
One of those valve springs looks askew, indicating your valves have been in contact with the pistons. Inspect the piston tops for signs of contact, that is an engine killer! Are any valve keepers missing?
You can check for bent valves, by rolling them on a flat surface.

Re: 1961 lincoln engine
So my 462 block has 430 heads on it. Can I put 462 heads on it?

Re: 1961 lincoln engine
Would the internal of the 462 be 462 or 430? Sense I have 430 heads.

The 462 has a different stroke and different cylinder bore
The pistons, rings, rods, crank & bearings are unique to the 462
In addition the cam will be unique as well. While a 430 cam would fit into 462 block, the other parts would not fit. 430 pistons will be too small for a 462 block.
Common parts in the block may be
Timing set & lifters
What is bolted to the top (cylinder heads) of the block does not dictate what is in the block.
Why there are 430 heads on a 462 I have no clue. And I am not totally convinced you have a 462 block
The bore and stroke for each engine
430 = 4.30 x 3.70
462 = 4.38 x 3.83
I would suggest measuring the bore & stroke of your block to understand what you have if you are having a difficult time identifying what you have. Posting pictures isn't really the best method. And there are a couple dozen posts on engine ID over the course of a month or so. Identification shouldn't take much more than 15 minutes.

Lifters are matched to the camshaft unless new unused. Putting new lifters on a used camshaft will wear out the cam on those lobes swiftly. Which means major engine repairs in a few years. Lifters usually come in a set.
Buying a new lifter set, either machine the cam shaft or buy a new camshaft with bearings.

If you can not find a pin it can be made or machined from stock. Or buy one based on dimensions. And it might come with the cam shaft

You could call Comp Cams and ask them. They sell a variety of dowel pins.ammiller83 wrote:My engine guy says he needs the dowel pin the is used to line up the cam on the 462? Does anyone know where I could get one.

The p.c.v.
You will also need the correct spacer plate under the carb, or a newer carb, for the other end of the hose.
