´73 perfomance

Racer · 06-03-2000, 09:03 PM

I´d like to know some perfomance figures for a ´73 Mach I, my current car.
It´s a 351 4v and with LOTS of miles, Hurst on the floor and...... nothing more :-)
The car is totally stock and I don´t pretend 12 or 13 scs times, but would be nice to know what figures the car should do with a good tune up.

I'm not an expert on these Mustangs (obviously) but I would guess high 15's would be about what to expect.
The '73's had a lot of pollution controls added on and that knocked down the et's a lot. The '71's were high-13 second cars.

Hopefully, more knowledgable 'Classic' Mustangers will verify or correct my figures.

I also can't find any info on my 73 351 C 2bbl. Windsor, 4bbl, and 302 got all the press for that year. Looking forward to what replies you get.

Dan, I´m in the same boat, there are no much info on the ´73 cars from Ford at the point is hard to see the difference between a 351 4v and a 351 2v :-) Call me what you want, but I can´t see the diference jeje.
It´s my first Mustang and there are some things I don´t know. Anyway the ´73 Mach I, is a fine piece of car.

Thanks red I will look it up. I am in big time need of motor mounts part number D3ZZ6038B. They were only made one year for that 73 clevland I have. All the web places send me remakes that don't fit. Anyone know of NOS I would like to hear from them.
