Ford Racings X302 Crate Engine Install - X Marks The Spot, Part 2

The saga of swapping the engine of a 1965 Falcon Ranchero continues.Last month we embarked on an engine swap for a '65 Falcon Ranchero. Since the Falcon and Mustang share similar engine bays, everything in this series should be relevant to our Mustang readers. Frankly, even if you own a Torino or Fairlane, the Ford Racing X302 small-block crate engine is a great option to repower your ride. Minor differences between car lines, such as headers, front dress, fuel line routing, and so on, are all minor and everyone tackles them in a different manner regardless. So think of our X302 swap as a guideline for any '60s Ford product, because no matter what you own, with 340 hp on tap in a fresh full-roller 5.0L engine, you'll have plenty of power to move your classic down the road.
