360 into a 69 Coupe
 
Hello,

I recently found a 69 coupe mustang in good condition without an engine and i was wondering what kinda things i would need to do to put a `75 360 and C-6 in it, i don't know what was originally in it so im assuming it was a windsor engine. Thank you for any help

I could be wrong here, but isn't the 360 the same block as the 352 and 390's. If that is the case, the swap should be easy since the FE (390, 428) was offered in these cars. However, If I were going that route, I would go with more cubic inches than a 360. 390's are pretty plentiful and 428's are great. Or a 428 crank in a 390 for a 407 is popular as well. But if you already have the 360, then the price is right.

The 360 is just a short stroke 390, the block change was 390-428 which i know is a different casting, i was wondering what parts in the car i would need to change, im figuring throtle linkage, mounts, radiator, maybe crossmember if its there, what other parts, i don't know what was in the car originally, thanks for any help
