I'm really surprised you feel you need to turn so many RPMS to be in the power band of the 460. That's the sort of gearing I would expect for a smaller V8 like a 350 or a 360 ford. My Suburban has 3.73 gears and 235/15x16 tires. I don't run it past 65mph since it predates Overdrive and I'm turning abut 2800. I'm still seeing what sort of MPG to expect empty.
Peak Torque on this motor is 385pound feet at 1600 RPM. I would think a 460 would be close to the same.
