You may want to consider a change to a 240 or 300 ci inline. There are lots of good speed parts for these engines and they can make well over 300 hp with the right parts and some good head work. The 240 and 300 have been the choice of circle track racers running in 6cyl classes for years.

 

I believe you are referring to the 250 cid inline 6, and not the 240. Mustangs have never used a 240 cid engine.

Soo, Here I was in my garage talking with a friend this morning who happend to have a built 1976 300cu I6, he has the name and number of the guy who built it, over $2000 in the engine he claimed. So im considering buying it, though I do not know if it will fit? Are the motor mounts the same??

Has anyone put a 300 I6 in a 65-66stang?

If anyone knows where I can find some onfo on this or has had experience with it please met me know.

Thanks.

 

i asked the same question a few days ago. i DO know they are bigger (size wise not just displacement) whereas i believe a 250 is a direct replacement

 

nope no one makes a stroker kit especially for the 200 cause the clearence between rods and cam is so close there are actually reliefs cut into the cam so they clear each other


actually classic inlines is coming out with an aluminum head for the six that will get rif of that problem

there is someone on www.fordsix.com that has put a 300 in a 67 and it looks really good
here is a link to a thread with pictures http://fordsix.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=40090

 

sure a 6 is cool....if your driving like a TR6 or something.

 

wow that 300 looks like it fits really good in there, if i remember a 302 piston has the same dimensions, which means lots of options there..... with some porting and those 4bbl intakes i see potential for lots of hp and GOBS of torque

 

I Pmd the guy with Questions, thanks ALOT for posting those links Stang Boy,

Also is it just me or does it look like there is no fan???????

Maybe im just blind...

 

HOT DAMN, its about time we got a newbie in here that called it an I6, everyone else calls em v6s[sm=noooo.gif]

 

yeah but like, it's half a V
