    I'm not sure but no p/s no p/b no radio and no heater .I would guess under 3200 .At least the engine was broke in on the dyno .Still have not driven it trans needs to come out again and see why reverse is acting up and needs a alignment.I also want to get a good mandrel bent exhaust on it .It will be ready when Morocco opens this spring.

    Very nice indeed!! A 68 GT with a 428 was seldom seen up here back in the day. Only knew of a few 390 cars.

    I hope the weather turns soon and I can drive the new Mustang again .I will take it to the track this spring too.They are supposed to run 12.80's as delivered .It does over 110 mph on the marked off 1/4 on my road. The gps did say 113 .With just a plug in tune they have run 12.14 at 117 .May supercharge it or twin turbo .It does not take much to run well into the tens and a bunch have run high 9's with stock suspension .

    I weighed it a while back 3120 without much fuel in it or a spare. Having teething issues may have to bring the 69 car.:3gears:
