RE:one other little thing..

There's just one other little challenge you'll face dropping that early block, if that's what it really is, it has the early '65 back to '58 two bolt engine mount system. So plan ahead for the correct engine mounts to adapt this early block with C2SE heads into that '67 Mustang.

It can be done. I've seen it lots of times. It was done a lot back in '67 & '68 when guys bought their brand new 390 GT 'stang and immediately got thrashed by a SS 396-350 Chevelle/Camaro, a 389 tri powered GTO, a 400 cubed GM just about anything and a 440 Mopar GTX/RT. Out would come that nice little 390GT and in would go a real high performance FE which generally was a '64 & back two bolt mounter. I never had the opportunity but sure woulda if I coulda. I remember two '67 Mustang GT 4 speeds with owner installed 425 horse center oiler 427s that ran like a HP Mustang should have.

I think Charles Crites at Crites Reproductions makes the full kit to make this installation easy.
This thread, so far...
