No, although it will fit a 390/428.

The factory wheel for 67 289 was 14x5. Even the styled steel 67 wheel was 14x5.5.
finally are tri-Y headers any good?
They were good enough to be factory equipment on 65-66 GT350 Shelbys. Excellent low and mid-range power.

That's a conventional axle, with no traction control. The differential allows the wheels to spin independently.
