    It can but he will have to buy a rear sump oil pan. Something like from these people: http://www.cantonracingproducts.com/...rear_sump.html You will have to scroll down to the FE Oil Pan.

    Ford/Merc

     



    He could run those times with a 302 and save a lot of weight in the process,I suggest he visit:www.network.54.com/forum/119417/ ,the FE motors are very heavy and parts are pricey.

    i agree, he can run those numbers fairly easy with the 302. he will have to throw a few mods in there but that is a very realistic number with the 302. a friend of mine has a 87 hatchback mustang, bone stock 302, only mod is a set of mac headers, runs 13.480's all day, and on a 90 shot of NOS wet kit, he runs 13.020. and that is through a manual tranny, with an automatic he would be a bit quicker.
