Maybe when I get it running, that could be an excuse for a road trip. From what I hear, you need to keep a case of depends in the car with a built 302 under the hood.I've never rode in a V-8 powered MII. In 1978 while still in High school, I rode in a 4 cylinder 1975 MII.
139 neck snapping hp. Aluminum heads and intake can get the car down to about 2700 lbs. A 363 stroker making a modest 400 hp will trap 130mph in the low 11 second range if you could get traction.MII 2bbl V-8 specsFord Mustang II V8 specs, dimensions

You gotta have traction to break one. My 68 cougar had an 8 inch axle with a low 3 ratio. Car is far more fun to drive with the explorer 8.8 and 3.73 ratio@CDW6212R The Mustang II V-8 cars came with an 8 inch. I've never broke one.
