Hi my name is Nathan and I am totally new to Mustangs! I just bought a 73 Fastback for resto.
I am having trouble deciding on which engine I shoud buy to put in it.
Here are my choices:
71 Thunderbird with 429 and C6 tranny. I get the entire car for $1100
77 E350 Van with 460 and C6 tranny. I get the entire van for $800
Both vehicles are in good running condition but the bodies are pretty shot.
Which engine will give me more bang for the buck? I have heard that the 429 has 360 hp from the factory but I know nothing about the 460.
Any advice will be helpful!
Thanks
Nathan
