Anyone have the 340hp/345hp ford crate motor, im looking at summit, $3300 not a bad deal, anyone have an opinion on it.
What would I need to change to get it into a 67 mustang.

I have the 345 horse version (b303 cam) in my 67 coupe. I love it. the car also has a T5 5 speed and 3.80 rear gears. It is pretty fast for a street car. According to the HP calculator with slick the car should do mid 12's. With the overdrive it also gets around 20 mpg with a 650 DP. I got it dynoed and it put down about 300 rwhp. It sounds great too.

what did you have to change to get it into the 67 coupe? oil pan, flywheel, front cover, etc???

thanks

i have one in my 88GT.i love it.i pulled out the B303 cam and had the pistons fly cut and put in a F303 cam.i ran a 12.3 at 115mph but was spinning in 3gears and a little in 4th.good motor i'm turning it 6500 rpms.i just got new rims with e.t. steets on rear with drag spings and shocks on car this winter and i'm almost pulling front drivers side tire.didn't get to strip yet.

I changed the timing cover/water pump/ pulleys/dampner to the early style. The oil pan that cam with it fit, although I changed it to a high capacity road race pan from Canton. I kept the flywheel Ford provided because I was already using a latemodel clutch. Besides the timing cover and that stuff it was a really easy swap. I also used an electric fuel pump so I woundnt have to worry about the fuel pump eccentric. 1qiucGT How much did the f303 cam increase the performance? How much did you have to fly cut the pistons?

I have the 340 HP with the E cam in a 1939 Ford Convertible. Tremac 3550 and 3.56 gears. Runs great.

Also put the same crate 302 , E cam in a brother's 1968 Mustang Convertable. It waas stock - C-4 and 2.75 gears. More stall on the converter would be nice, but really runs good. For the money, I thinks they are a good value. All new parts and strong street engine.

not a bad price for a all new engine

what recomendations do you guys have for either the b303 cam or the e303 cam? it would be going into a 67 coupe, with a 3.73 rear and a c-4, dont have a converter yet but would base that on the cam.
Also running a 750db carb

Go with the one that delivers the most hp. With that automatic you will want a little extra.
