The original GT 350's had a modified 289 K code engine that got just over 300 horsepower. That is the only engine they ever had because the 302, 351, 390, 428 or whatever had not even been invented. Now, starting in 67 the GT 500 got the 390.

I thought the GT 500s came with a 428, not a 390. I may be wrong though.

Something about this thread doesn't add up

well he was saying gt 350 which are 289s. by the way guys im back. been replacing the original radio back in the stang, school (doing summer classes)

best way is to have the car apprised by someone that knows older cars well.

It is my understanding that the 1967 GT 500 had a 390, and the 68 up had the 428.

Nope, the 67 and 68 GT-500's came with a 428 CID engine. It is rumored that Ford may have stuck in a 390 in 1968 GT-500's due to a 428 shortage. I don't know, it's a rumor. The aftermarket did put 427 CID engines in 68 GT-500.
