RE:Well, I think it will....

Terry, I found what I was looking for to answer your question. Sorry Mr. F but a FoMoCo '61-'62 390/406 tri power system will fit very nicely under the hood of an FE powered '67-'68 'stang.

Good ol'Mr.F motivated me to go out diggin' through a stack of the last two years of Mustang & FORDS. You may not be able to find it anywhere now but on pages 50-51, February 2002, Mustang & FORDS is a featured '67 Mustang GT titled "Poor Man's Cobra Jet". A beautiful white, red interior, red stripes, -S- code Mustang powered by a built 390 using C6AE-R heads topped off by, you can guess in one try, a C1AE FoMoCo tri power system with the stock oval air cleaner. And the hood of this '67 GT Mustang is standard (no dual-dips w/turn signals) stock. No scoops or anything cut out.

I personally knew two owners who were less than satisfied with their newly purchased '67 Mustang GT's with 4 speeds. Both were immediately trounced by SS396 Malibus, yes, the one-option up 350 horse 396. It didn't take either too long to shop and locate '63-'64 -R- code Galaxies. The old switcheroo was done by both owners, 390GT's out, replaced with lo-riser 427's. The 390GT's went into the -R- code Galaxies and were sold. The dual four 427's fit perfectly under the hoods of the stock '67 GT's. Now my FE friends, the two '67 -S- code Mustangs did an admirable job of representing Ford Muscle in the late sixties. They built their Mustangs the good old hot rod way. Ford coulda, shoulda but I'm not going to go there again.

BTW, it's sad but true, that due to the lackluster performance of the -S- code cars, many '62-'64 HP FE full size Fords gave up their mighty, well built and designed big blocks for some much needed horsepower transfusion into the -S- code unibodys.

Have your trio of Holleys rebuilt by Joe Bunetic, install the entire system into your '67 Mustang -S- code and enjoy.
