Ford VS Chevy........again?!?

[Unit 5302]

LOL.

The second post by me was the more accurate of the two.

I find it extremely difficult to put the 64 1/2 260 V-8 in as a Muscle Car. Even the 289 and 289hipo's. The older 302's as well. They weren't brutish enough. The Mustang II was a lot more than what it gets credit for. Placing it into the Muscle Car category, even with the 302 is too hard for me to do though. They are too close to sporty.

Can any one here name the ONLY year the V-8 was not an option in the Mustang? For a bonus, name the two possible engines that year. For even more points, what was the top performance model, and the output of the engine? LOL... If you don't know, it'll make you sick.
