I was wondering if I could get some opinions on doing some work on my 1966 Mustang convertible. It is a 289 V8 with a four barrel carb. There is a little noise in a lifter I believe and I am thinking about taking out the engine this winter and doing some work on the car, flipping it over, etc. I noticed when I got the car it has cobra on the valve covers but the engine code is a code C and not code K. Is it better to keep the engine original to the vin or would it be better to leave the cobra valve covers on? And, also, could you please tell me how to know if it has cobra heads?
The engine tag by the carb says: 289 E 66 Ford
G 236-T 12
The tag is attached to the intake manifold.
VIN: 6F08C727182
76C Z 36 25G 33 Axle: 6 Trans: 6
I will try to post some photos under my profile for more information.
Thank you to anyone who replies and sorry if this is the wrong place to ask a general question such as this, Brian
