Purchased a 69 Mustang Coupe with a 250 inline 6 and will definately want to do a rebuild on a 302 or 351w but am not sure which one to go with. Obviously, the 351w will produce more power, but my question is, will there be any modifications needed to the engine bay/suspension for a 351w? Am I outdoing myself with wanting to go with a 351w? I'm not looking to race the car (althoough it'd be fun), but am looking for a great muscle car sound with the power to match.

Thanks in advance!

 

351 was an optional engine in 1969 so putting it in your car would be no more hassal then the 302

 

Post some pictures man. I love the look of 69's. Id go with the 351w with open-hooker longtube headers. She will sounds like a beast !

 

I will post pictures when the car arrives. Just purchased it on Sunday and am setting up transport shipping tomorrow for it. Do you have any other pictures other than the one in your avatar of your mustang?

 

I sure do. Gimme a sec and ill post some. Did you order your off the net? I hope you inspected it. [&:]

 

You mean inline 6 the v6 didnt hit the mustang tell the fox body.If i was you id go for the 351w its a small block cheap to get and can be built to a power house.

 

Good catch, not sure why I put V6 down..

I must say, that car looks AND sounds fantastic. Great job on it. So, did you rebuild the 390 yourself, or have it done?
