My neighbor has a 1976 VERY rusty Granada with a good running 250. The car has to go, but I can have the engine. Before I go to the trouble of removing it, I have to know...
Will it fit in my '82 Mustang?
I know it's taller, longer and wider than the 200, but if it will fit, what mounts do I use? Will the hood close? If not, how about with a hood scoop? I know I need a custom oil pan, do I also need custom headers?
I had plans to build a hot 200, but if the 250 will fit, then that is what I'll send to the machine shop. Besides, this sounds like just the thing I need to keep my 'stang from getting run over by Hondas everytime I go out cruising.
Also, just how high can you comfortably rev a 250?
