For starters make sure the engine is running at peak performance, meaning it has good compression, no vacuum leaks, and the entire ignition system is in good order.
After that, depending on what you want to get out of the motor, you can start with a K&N air filter and some dual exhaust. This will let the engine breathe easier.
Then after that you can go with a camshaft, new heads, headers, etc. If it's computer controlled you might be able to get a chip or programmer for it.
Need more info though. What is the engine going to be used for? Pulling a boat or camper? Drag racing? Is it in a car or truck?

Horse power and torque for 460 v8 ford engine?
a 460 is an excellent hi-output big block engine, but the torque an HP specs really depend on what year the engine is. 90s 460s, fuel injected, put out about 250 HP and 400 ft-lbs of torque. earlier 460s were of similar performance, and many were more powerful. the real downfall of the engine is its incredibly horrible gas mileage- with fuel injection even, they get around 10MPG. as you can see, these engines in stock form can pull just about anything you could hook it to. I'm putting an FI 460 into my '79 bronco ATM.

What is the horsepower on a 79 Ford 460?
I have a 1993 f-250 with a 460 in it and the rated HP is 245. I believe that the 460 has been in that area of hp output for many years. Also, My truck has electronic fuel injection - so, if yours is carbuerated then it would be slightly less. According to the specs page in the Chilton's manual, ford pickups w/460 v-8s in '79 were rated at 239 HP@ 4000 rpm and 375 Lb-ft torque @2400 rpm stock. Of course, vans will be slightly less (crummy exhaust), and F350's slightly more (no emissions equipment). - hughes 1701
