1966 Ford Mustang - Out of the Box

Who'd have thought to put an SVO four-cylinder in a 1966 Ford Mustang? Brian Fitting, that's who.Without a doubt, the mainstream approach to adding horsepower to a vintage Mustang invariably revolves around increased displacement. There may be a blower or nitrous shot that eventually augments, but a "bigger is better" mantra is ingrained in most of us with no hope of ever turning back. For example, unless limited by sanctioning body rules, does anyone really build a stock cube 289 anymore? How about that easy swap to the big brother 351, or while you're at it, why not a 408? Big-blocks anyone? While you could argue that the increasing frequency of high-tech mod motors bucks the mindset, the consistent theme of V-8 architecture and stroker cranks keep these choices well within a framework we're familiar with.
