i have a 67 coupe that im looking to switch motors in...it has a 289 2v with a 3 speed in it right now gets terrible gas mileage hard to start on cold days and not much power...i was thinking about switching to a fuel injected 5.0 out of a newer Gt up to 93...and use the t5 tranny out of it as well...im just trying to get some opinions if this is a good idea? or if it is too much trouble etc. any suggestions would be appreciated (even other setup ideas would be appreciated)
