Can a sn95 5.0 engine go into a 76 mach 1 fastback?

still doesnt change the fact that 71-73's it was nothing more than stickers with 302 2v base motor[:'(]
More than stickers......urethane front bumpers, unique honeycomb grill and tail treatments, deluxe wheels and yes the deluxe interior as you mentioned and the hood was optional in 73, My 73 came with it and It had a 351W 2V (I swapped a 71 351C 4V in it) even at that if it wasn't much more different than a standard Mustang it is still a MACH1.

In this comparison you might as well say a fox body GT is nothing more than a 5.0 LX with extra body cladding, and deluxe interior. *shrugs*
but what im getting at is nothing was special that couldnt be ordered other than the stickers ive had 8 71-73 cars other than a grille, and bumper and pop open gas cap in 1971. they didnt even get the center gauges and tach standard if im not mistaken, they were the same as a fastback. no standard delux interior etc compared to the 69-70 a few years earlier. ive had a standard fastback that had more "mach 1" items than a base mach 1 it had the naca hood,delux interior, spoiler etc. mine look like a boss 351 car although it wasnt, it had the color keyed front fender eyebrows with a chrome bumper. ive had a 72 sport coupe it had all the items you think when you think mach1. i had a very well optioned 73 mach i busted up for parts it had a 351c,fmx,guages,hood,power windows,heat rear glass etc .

you cant order a lx with gt body parts like you could order a 71-73 standard with mach 1 parts. well not unless your consider a an sn95 gts it was setup like an lx i wanna pick one up one day there is a mexican driving around in a clean yellow one hes now added z3 fenders i wanna save that car from his hacking so bad
