Great job!
-
someone please be honest. i have a question to ask and im stuck in between a rock and a hard place... Is 1200 Dollars american too much or is it a good price to pay to rebuild a 1973 351 cleveland 2v???
thank you
-
lol, my heart stopped for a second when i thought the music wouldnt fade out whule the engine was cranked. thanks for posting this awesome video!
-
ty for putting real music in the video and for turning it off so we can hear the motor!

@TheRedSled97 Factory specs.

timeings off it sounds like

@123456789mischief your correct that this isnt a Mach 1 engine, but the 302 2V only dropped to 140 after 1972 due to emission regulations, I just bought a 1970 302 2V, 220 HP. Just out of curiosity what year is this engine from?
-
@123456789mischief a 302 had 140 hp? and a 351 had over twice that? makes no sense i thought the 302 was 190 hp.
-
That's the figures on the engines performance? Also how much did it generally cost to build?

sounds incredible
about how much money and time did this take if you dont mind

so if this is the origanal motor then its not a mach 1 just a 72 mustang sport roof.
the mach 1 had a 351 cleveland. horse power was an incredible 275. the 302 had an incredible 140 HP.
the way to check for sure if your 72 is actualy a mach 1 is to check the vin #. look at the 3rd and 4th numbers if they are 05 its a mach if its 02 its just a sport roof. next will be a letter on a mach 1 it will be an R on a fast back it will be F
72 mach 1 starts 2T05R then 6 more numbers starting with 1

The car is true Mach 1 , originlay 351 2V H code car. VIN 2F05H.... Unfortunately original engine has gone and I got it with 302 only which is actually same year but probably comming frorm Fairlane.

@MustangMach172 didn't think they came with the 2V in the mach 1 but then again what I don't know is a heck of a lot more than what I know. and this is ford they were famous for putting things where they shouldn't be. nice job on the engine is there a video of the finished car yet?

Definitely Mach 1 could be ordered with 2V or 4V engine for '72. The car is not yet completed. A lot of restoration has been done. I am finishing with bodywork thus only pictures and no video. As you tube did not allow to type any web links here - type "mach172.cz" in google and you can check restoration progress
