Oh also I have the 68 block with a 7 main crank I too had to find the V8 bolt pattern bell housing. But again I have to tell you your car and engine makes me cry it's so beautiful. The guy from inline classics did pass away condolences to his family and friends. I think the new company is called vintage inlines and they are supposedly going to start taking orders for more straight 6 Ford 200 heads or that family of head with a removable intake thanks for posting that awesome car
Hey, out of curiosity how is the the T-5 behind the 200. Specifically, how is it on the highway? Because right now mine screams on the highway with the manual three speed.
It's a much better transmission for these engines; I put the T5 on when I still had the previous engine and it went from a screamer to a more enjoyable highway cruiser. Definitely one of the first mods I would do.
That car is awesome I have a big block 4 speed out of a 428 in my 63 comet wagon I have a 8 inch rearend, also buying a caltracks link suspension from Calvert racing out in Lancaster ca call travis kankirk at Calvert racing he'll hook you up with a great link suspension
Dude, I haven't kept track. More than I would have liked no doubt. The problem is I have done everything except for paint. It's all been replaced or updates over the last few years.
He’s right, it’s way bigger and about as heavy as a small v8, so you’d be doing everything for a v8 swap, which is already a lot of work, and then fabbing mounts, engine harness, making a radiator fit. If you’re not keen on the factory small six, a v8 is the only better option
I have a similar set up do you know what electric fan you used? I have one but I had to mount it on the front of the radiator because it would not clear the water pump pulley. Please help if you know what you used.
The fan I got was a SPAL unit I purchased from the Fan Man; I called them and they advised me to order an 2.05" thick SPAL unit that was only $60. It pulls 1300cfm, and has worked in hot LA traffic with my engine with no issues. the-fan-man.com/product/16-spal-low-profile-pull-type-electric-fan-s400/
Are you talking about the motor? Because they came with two different inline sixes the first is the 200ci (pictured in the video which has 5 freeze plugs on the side) and the second is the 250ci. You can usually find either of these motors fairly easily. However, the 200 has more aftermarket support and is more common considering it started showing up in cars somewhere in 1965 and was used until sometime in the 80s. The difference between these blocks is almost none. As for price they are not very expensive a good way to find nice ones that run and are not frozen is to call shops in your area that specialize in classics. There are usually a few sitting around from cars that have had a v8 swapped in. I picked a fairly fresh 67 200 that came with a C4 transmission for 150 dollars and the motor has somewhere in the neighborhood of 45,000 miles on it. Another good way to find them is to look in 80s Fairmonts and mercury comets because they could be optioned with a 200.

Yey! Sounds amazing
Super jealous man.
That car is great!
How do you go about swapping to T5 transmission. Can you get an adapter mine is a 1965 200

I have done several 300 six. And they like a 600 cfm as well.

Very nice.
what is your intake setup I'm interested in switching to a bigger carb but Im worried about the stock log hampering it.
I have a t5 too , very nice, i have a rebuild engine 6i , question , how much did all of this cost? I would like to do the same to my car, thanks

@@gus91343 you are doing it the smart way. Do the paint last, so you don't mess up your paint job, while wrenching!
Do you have any pitchers of what was done to flywheel and trans to mate up to engine because I have a 81 block
I do have a couple of images, but I'm not sure how to post them here.
What kind of birds are you raising?
wish i couldve gotten one of those aluminum heads. nice set up man, im thinking about buying a seperated head and trying to build a tri carb set up.
you can still get them from Matt Cox the owner of vintage inlines.
Steven Marino theyr not accepting orders right now
Everybody Does V8s I want to build a HIPO 6 . Just Plain kool and easy to work on.
I bought 96 Ford f150 it has a straight 6 in it with 40,000 miles, I was wondering if I bought a 66 mustang body if I could put it in there??
Your motor is a 300 CI motor- it's physically way bigger than my motor. It is possible to install in a Mustang, but it takes some doing.

What year mustang pressure plate did you use for flywheel and part number thnks
I used a fox-body style clutch/pressure plate combo.
What size of efan did you get to fit?
Where did you get your valve cover?

Thank you so much!
gus91326 link? Cant seem to find it anywhere ive found some but they are 90-120$
iLL Zancakez the-fan-man.com/product/16-spal-low-profile-pull-type-electric-fan-s400/
gus91326 is your rad a 3row? And about how much clearence do you have? Thanks for the help
Do you have a part number for the flywheel thnks
I used an ACT 600412, but re drilled it to work with my 200 crank.
Admission. Manifold custom made??
Nope- both were off-the shelf items!
where did you get that engine bar?
It's a standard Monte Carlo bar- from NPD, I believe.
I've always wanted a classic mustang but not nearly in as good of condition, I like a rusty and beat up looking car for some reason.
If you saw it in person, it's not that nice! Paint is completely shot, but I like it.
gus91326 It still looks like a fun car and I'd imagine it draws attention no matter how the paint is!
how much is a Mustang 1969 stock 6 in line cost??? anyone?
