Damn you and your books, Power!

LOL!

Anybody else find it extremely sad that Ford continued the name Mach 1 into the first year of the Mustang II?

Mach 1 with the 2.8L V-6 @ 105hp. Oh, man. That's horrible.

I was pretty sure the 302 V-8 offered from 1975-1978 had 139hp@3200rpm, 248lb/ft@1800rpm. I had one, coupled to the C-4 auto in a 1977 fastback.

Incidentally, after the 1974 year, the top option was the Cobra II, with an optional 302. Hehe. Seems as though the Mach 1 name was somehow soiled? In 1978 the King Cobra was released, but with no additional power under the hood, it was all show, not much go.

Hehe, now. What model year was the 5.0 badge first used on the Mustang?
