Default 65-66 Mustang 390 Swap?
Has anyone attemped to put a FE in the first generation Mustangs (64-66?)

Is the amount of work involved worth it, or would I be better off going with a 351 stroker?

Are there any magazine articles that have done something like this?

I would like to do something like this to make it a Street/Drag car, probably with a 390 and 4.11's. I would like to have a big block, but if there is way too much work involved, I think I can live with a 351 stroked to a 408/418. I know that the 67-68 will take an FE, but for the most part most of the early Mustangs are 65-66 in this area. Any help/advice is appreciated, thanks.
