Crud, so that means I have to find a 302 out of a stang then, huh. What if the 302 I find out of a stang is EFI and I want it carbed? What has to be done to convert it other than changing out the intake manifold and put a carb on it?
lol, thanks guys. Lots of good info. Hey, what exactly is a 302 roller? Another stang I have the option to buy has one in it made by some famous guy down in Cali. Can't quite remember the name.
Thanks for the info, you went through 5? damn. So a stock 302 pan and flywheel would take the place of the 351 pan and flywheel, just so I'm understanding this correctly. And where would you find the headers at. Whats the price range of a tko600? It has to be up there otherwise you would have...
Cool, thanks man. If I get this stang your going to have to give me step by step instructions on how to put it in.:D This 85 needs to be redone from the ground up, I'm fairly passable with electrical but I'm weak with the major mechanical, like swaps for instance. :D
hey, cool, thanks! Whats required to do it? Also, what would the hp difference be between the 302 and the 351 roughly? I guess what I'm asking is it worth doing it. Dang, I for got to add which would be better to go with, windsor or cleveland?
How hard is it to put a 351 into a 85 with the set-up for a 302? Also, will a t-5 tranny bolt up to it? I'm probably getting a 85 with a missing engine and tranny and before I buy anything I want to know how hard its going to be. Yes, I want to stay carbed for now. Thanks in advance for any help...
Thanks for the reply guys. I don't have the car yet, I saw this car locally that was in my price range and before I thought about buying it I was interested in knowing what would be required to do the swap and see if it was worth it. I'm not sure which 6 cylinder it has though. I'm not to fond...
Does anyone know what is required to put a non-fuel injected 302 into a 83 stang with a 6 cylinder? Is it worth the trouble? Thanks in advance for any help you can give.:hail2:
I got to thinking about it, why does only the models with a 6 cyl have to be changed and not the 4 cyl(k member)? Also, does that mean all mustangs between 83-93? I found a different one, this one is a 93 with a 4 cyl and a busted tranny, so in theory the 351 should fit in it without changing...
Man, it's starting to look like it's more than it's worth. What I really want is a t-top anyway. Maybe I'm better off just waiting. Thank you to everyone that gave advice, I really appreciate it.
Actually I would like to keep it carburated but I don't know enough to know how it would affect a car that was meant for a puter. That sucks about the k member though. Is it just worth finding a mustang that had a v-8 in it? I haven't bought the one with the 6 cyl yet, I was waiting until this...
Yeah, I've got one sitting in a 73 ranchero that was rebuilt about 8000 miles ago. The body is in descent shape exept for the rust on the drivers side floor pan so I thought about putting the engine into a mustang. I'm a mustang guy anyway. Will a modern puter work with an older engine?
I'm thinking about putting a 351 cleveland into a 84 mustang with a blown 6 cyl and a auto trans. What exactly would it take to do the swap(computerwise and mechanicalwise)? I'm also thinking about swapping out the tranny for a 5-speed. Will a T-5 work or do I have to go with something else...
