![]() It doesnt take that much more to build power out of a 289 than it does a 302. The 289 in my old Stang is pretty stout and will give alot of people around town a run for there money. Of course the car is pretty light though.
Basically the same things that work on a 302 work on a 289. Heads, manifolds, ingnition. Now the Ford 260 windsor is difficult to build power. Mainly because of small cylinder bore that hinders valve size and cumbustion chamber design. |
