New project. My mustang is complete. I will not take a step back to a 260 as that is dumb. I have another project. A 260 is cheap and everyone has the 302 or 289 motor. I want different. I got myself a 32 rod. And no i dont want a flat head. Everyone has one of them too. Im doing something different on budget. And yes ford made a 260 in the early 60's. Comets and galaxies had them. Will a 302 manifold fit on top of the 260 tho? wont the 302 manifolds be stronger? Its cast Iron.
