no, but I want to !!
Is there a 514 kit fot the 460?
Me too. I saw it on Fordracing.com I think.
If you buy a crate 514, follow the recommendation of adding clearance to the rods and mains for marine use. They come from Ford with street type clearances which are a little tight for boat use.
Whats the difference argue

Whats the difference argue The difference is wether or not your bearings live. Not looking for an arguement, personally I don't care. I'm just passing along some advice that the people at Ford say.
I was kinda looking for a more technical reason.
I believe and 058 can correct me ifin I is wrong but because of the constant load on the engine the oil gets hotter along with everything else thus needed greater clearances to keep from running metal on metal.
