i know a guy who has a cheap 260 V8 with a 3 speed. Its in restore-needed condition, but its cheap. Claims its the 204th mustang built, ever.

Is there any extra value for a 260 V8 cuz they arnt as common?

 

The whole car, or just the engine and tranny?

 

no whole car...is it rare or i just dont see them much?

sounds kind of like the chevy 302 or something.....just uncommon.....

 

I dont think GM ever made a 302. I think that the called their version of the 302 the 303 (tryin to upstage ford again, never gonna happen!) I kinda under stand where your comin from about the 260 but if that mustang is seriously the 204th one built then it would only make sense that that would make it more valuable.

 

Well, ACtually chevy did make a 302. It's odd, but they did, and they are rare too. And Another thing, Chevy did make better cars back in the old days. Im sorry. If you get in a 68 Camaro and a 68 Mustang, you wouldn't have no problem pin pointing the better built car, which is the Camaro.

 

nah im almost positive....

Chevy 302 = z28 Camaro... it was the special engine designed as a promotional thing for the Camaro.

but anyways....yeah...it looks like a ton of work though...i dono if its worth it....its more or less a total resto...

 

yes, You hit the nail on the head. Im a chevy freak, so if anybody needs help with a chevy, ask me. lol.

 

is there such thing has a 303? ive never heard of it?


also...whats the difference between say...a 260 and 289...smaller bore or something? or just sheer physical size...?

 

a 2-6-0 n a 2-8-9 r the same motor just diffrent heads i think

 

chevy did make a 302, it was in the Z28 and was for the trans am racing series, the rule was no more than 5L would any engine displace
