==462== The 430 was replaced by the {{cvt|7.565|L|cuin L cc|adj=ri1|0|order=out}} engine in 1966. Bore and stroke were entirely different at {{convert|4.38|and|3.83|in|mm|1}} and the 462 MEL engine produced {{cvt|340|hp|kW|0}} and as much as {{cvt|485|lbft|Nm|0}} of torque. This engine was fitted with hydraulic lifters and a four-barrel [[Carter Carburetor|Carter AFB carburetor]]. This large, torquey engine was used only in Lincoln Continentals, from 1966 until mid-year in 1968 when it was replaced by the new lighter weight [[Ford 385 engine#460|Ford 385-series 460 V8]]. Production ended after 1968, and production facilities in Lima were converted to produce the new engine family.
